More mayhem awaits as Borderlands 2 fans go head-to-head to conquer Mount Jackmore

Limited Edition Borderlands 2 Ultimate Loot Chests and other goodies to be won via new online shoot and loot game

First they had gamers hooked for hours with 80’s style de-make, ‘The Border Lands’. Now, 2K Games and Gearbox Software have launched ‘Mount Jackmore’, a new online game with prizes to give away including the much sought-after Limited Edition Loot Lockers.

Handsome Jack, the ultimate villain of Gearbox Software’s upcoming release,Borderlands 2, has kicked his arrogance and douchebaggery up a notch by carving his face into Pandora’s rocky landscape. ‘Mount Jackmore’ gives players the  task/mission to shoot away at his chiseled features in the hope of taking away a prize.

Registered players start by selecting their weapon of choice and use their initial supply of 100 bullets to chip away at Jack’s stony face. Players can earn additional ammo once a day by inviting friends to play. As the rock disintegrates, prizes will be given away at designated points in the game.

Viewing the game in real time, players will be able to watch as their competitors take pot shots at the rock and will have to fight it out against them to  hit the right spot at the right time.
The prizes range from Borderlands 2 Vault logo pin badges to official apparel, figurines and copies of the game (upon release), with the player who destroys the final piece of the mountain set to win a special prize.  There are also sixteen sought-after Limited Edition Borderlands 2 Ultimate Loot Chests to be won.

‘Mount Jackmore’ can be accessed via www.wubwub.eu and will consist of four separate rounds, each round lasting for a week, with the first round starting today. It is open to residents aged 18 and older in the UK, France, Germany, Spain, The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Norway, Denmark, Russia and Australia. The contest rules, along with full terms and conditions, can be viewed online at the following link:wubwub.eu/jackmoreterms/gb.php

Available internationally on September 21st 2012, and in North America on September 18th 2012, Borderlands 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed four-player cooperative shooter-looter that combined intense first-person mayhem with role-playing gameplay.Borderlands 2 features all-new characters; skills; imaginative, diverse new environments with unique missions and enemies; and more exciting and fun weapons, equipment and loot than ever before.
