IMPORTANT: The review and rating are NOT meant for the DLC, but for this standalone port.

There's not really much to say besides this being a completely pointless port of Borderlands 2's biggest DLC, and it's simply because the entire premise of said DLC is built upon a big plot point of BL2.

I don't even know for which audience Gearbox intended this for. Most Borderlands fans have already played Assault on Dragon Keep anyways and if you played this port as a complete newcomer to the series you're directly thrown in the middle of something with unfamiliar faces, which you're expected to know already.

Besides these points, the port lacks basic little things from the original DLC, including accessibility features like dubs for different languages (the port is only dubbed in English) and has an unbalanced level curve, since the entire leveling process is sped up by a lot in comparison to the BL2 counterpart to compensate for the lack of skills you'd usually start this DLC with.

TL;DR: As a standalone port the connection to the main story is entirely missing and basic things have been changed to the worse. You're better off just playing the DLC in Borderlands 2 instead.

Too many enemies, not enough loot. Still played for way longer than planned wiv da missus. Hopefully the new game has more to it for us to enjoy

making a full-fledged game out of DLS is certainly powerful

Meu primeiro contato com a franquia Borderlands, achei um jogo curto porém bem engraçado e divertido de se jogar com os amigos


As far as standalone expansions go... this was fine. It's a repackaged version of the Borderlands 2 DLC of the same name (now with more incessant grinding because you're starting with a fresh character). Completely unnecessary, but it's Borderlands; it's not all that bad... all of the time.

Imagine if they did this with the shitty Hammerlock DLC instead, that'd be really funny

i like tiny tina a lot she's so cool agsdhjkbewfhuhefj
da game is fun kinda not always tho it's kinda boring at some point i think like da best parts were like somewhere halfway in da game, i just wanted to play it cause i like tiny tina a lot also wow dis game makes me wanna play d&d agshdjdbwfherijf

Tiny Tina: Asalto a la mazmorra del dragón (2013): Detesto todo el tema del looteo, las stats irrelevantes y su diseño de niveles regulero, PERO. El lore es muy interesante, la narrativa está muy bien llevada y la trama y los personajes rebosan carisma. Y lo bueno pesa más (7,25)

This is a fine DLC, in a way exactly what you would expect, from BL2 DLC and a nice short campaign to enjoy before jumping into tiny tina.
However what surprised me is that at the end, the writing gets believably emotional, I dont know if this is actually good, or if I am just happy that there is even the slightest emotional core to a BL game....
but i did like it!

The standalone definitely suffers from warped progression. But as someone who hasn't play the original bl2 dlc i thought it was fine gameplay wise.

A very funny but short dlc with ur typical borderlands humor

I don't know what @Assenemy is talking about, I found plenty of loot :p

For my actual review, this is pretty good dlc for a ps3 game thats now being released as a standalone. Kinda scummy it was on PlaystationPlus but its a good way to get hype for the new game coming up. Having played the original before I wasnt quite jumping to play it again but, a co-op game is a co-op game and I said why not lets do it. Overall I had a lot of fun, but some areas just have way too many enemies and feel like slogs only to pad out playtime. The story is pretty humorous (and a little touching), its a pretty creative idea for a dlc after all, and I can say for sure after playing this me and the partner are gonna play Wonderlands together too

Very short campaign. Originally DLC, this was made as a standalone game to promote the upcoming release of Tiny Tina's Wonderlands. Thematically, it is Borderlands DnD. Very grindy to get to max level. There is legitimately no point to get max level except for the trophy, making the whole achievement journey a bit redundant.

Apesar de curto (muito curto mesmo), foi um jogo bem divertido e frenético, se jogado com um amigo ou mais de um amigo, consegue ficar ainda mais interessante.

Unfortunately this standalone dlc fails to be as good as Border 2, being so fucking hard that can't be that funny, taking even more to kill enemies can become tedious, the good thing about it it's the ambients and the setting of a RPG

This was an amazing game, the gunplay was as good as ever and the story was pretty good too. Most of all I loved the new fantasy setting, it felt like a nice change of pace.

A lot of good easter egg side quests that was favoured back in 2013 or so. Great humour and voice acting.

Playtime: 9 Hours
Score: 8/10

Finally finished this DLC only now in 2022, even though I have replayed Borderlands 2 a dozen times I never finished this DLC, as no matter what level I was going in, the enemies would always be overpowered and I could never beat it. Fast track to now that Tiny Tina Wonderland is releasing, they rereleased this DLC as its own standalone expansion game, which is how I finally played all the way through and beat it.

The standalone version starts you at level 1 and you get 2 skill points per level as opposed to 1, which makes the leveling process much quicker and makes you more equipped to deal with the later enemies, but you can obviously play this normally as part of DLC for the main Borderlands 2 game.

I can finally see why this DLC is the most beloved of the whole series as its really cool to have the Borderlands formula mixed with DnD like roleplaying. The music as well is amazing and evokes fantasy RPG vibes, especially the main town theme. The story for this DLC also serves as the best epilogue to Borderlands 2's main story, and how Tina deals with the consequences of Handsome Jack's actions. The story was overall well done and it was nice to experience as a Borderlands fan.

Only real compliant I have is Handsome Jack who is the villain for this one again, barely gets any great lines or scenes like he did in the base game, and is more an afterthought villain, like they couldn't think of a new one. Also while this is more geared towards the standalone version then the original add on one, the loot progression mostly sucks, as a lot of the guns I picked up weren't all that great and I only picked up 2 legendries in my playthrough, with one being useless and not for my playstyle. But overall, no matter which way you play this, its worth a playthrough!

This was my first Borderlands experiance, and I'm playing the series after this. The gameplay was solid, the humor was excellent, and I loved the D&D setting. I'm going back to do all the side quests.

all those childish noices of characters and cringy talks, your gun doesn't actually feels like a gun and game only makes you go there collect this run there bla bla


Can’t really remember much about this game except that it was hard for no particular reason, it felt like I warped into late stage of the game while being lvl 1

borderlands 2 dlc as a standalone thing its fine

It was good but went to shit with the DLC's.
