Tales From the Borderlands’ Penultimate Episode Launches Next Week

Rhys and Fiona continue their search for the Vault beacon in 'Escape Plan Bravo,' the penultimate episode of Tales From the Borderlands.

As Vallory's guns are aimed at Rhys and Fiona, the duo are going to have to figure out how to survive their search for the Vault beacon, which is about to take them out into space. The cash-seeking duo realized the beacon is set on Hyperion's moon base of Helios, so they're going to have to catch a crazy ride to the space station floating between Pandora and its moon.

For those unfamiliar with Tales From the Borderlands, this five-episode-long miniseries of adventure games takes place after the events of Borderlands 2. You get to play as Fiona and Rhys. Rhys is a Hyperion businessman who is hoping to become the company's next Handsome Jack, whereas Fiona is a con artist on Pandora hoping to score the big one. Both of them meet in unfavorable circumstances and must recovery a ton of money they both believe they own. The duo go all over the planet (and beyond), encountering a variety of Vault Hunters, bandits and other unsavory individuals. Expect both Telltale Games' signature style of storytelling as well as Borderlands' zany and captivating universe of characters.

Tales From the Borderlands: Episode 4 — 'Escape Plan Bravo' will launch on Aug. 18 for PC, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3. 'Escape Plan Bravo' will launch for Xbox 360 and Xbox One on Aug. 19. Lastly, the episode will hit the iOS and Android formats on Aug. 20.
