Tiny Tina’s Wonderlandsenjoyed quite a bit of success ever since it launched almost a month ago, garnering many fans amongBorderlandsplayers with the appeal ofBorderlands 2’sAssault on Dragon KeepDLC. The game is possibly a step-up in many ways for Gearbox, with adeepWonderlandscharacter creation and customization processthat allows players to make their own Fatemaker instead of choosing from a set of Vault Hunters. Furthermore, it builds on the already chaotic gameplay of theBorderlandsseries by throwing spells into the mix in place of the classic grenades.
This renewed approach to a mixed fantasy setting with guns doesTiny Tina’s Wonderlandsa great service, as it feels like an improved version of the original Tiny Tina-focused DLC for the second game of theBorderlandsfranchise. On top of that, the game offers an endgame experience in the form of farming Chaos Chambers for loot, which is a fantastic way to deal with content that could possibly feel repetitive to play. Tomorrow, not even a full month into its release,Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands' first DLC will launch worldwide, and its trailer didn’t quite hit the mark among fans.

Yesterday, Gearbox officially revealed the content ofTiny Tina’s Wonderlands' first DLC,Coiled Captors, through a trailer that seems to focus on the new dungeon and its final boss. Because the DLC itself seems to only feature a dungeon and new loot, players are now wondering if this is cut content from the base game that’s being repurposed for a paid release. The problem is that this type of content has been released for free forBorderlands 3, with events likeBloody HarvestandRevenge of the Cartelsoffering more thanCoiled Captorsseems to do.
Coiled Captorsalso doesn’t look like astory DLC forTiny Tina’s Wonderlands, which could mean no additional zone where players can collect Loot Dice, Scrolls, Marbles, and freely explore. Instead, it seems the only new area is the dungeon itself, which could feel like more of the same after a few runs, especially since there are no new enemy types being introduced inCoiled Captors. Players are also left wondering if there will be any sort of increase to the level cap or the level of Chaos Chambers, which is something the trailer and the official website don’t mention.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands’content for theCoiled CaptorsDLCis not necessarily bad, but players are under the impression that it could have been much more than just a dungeon with new loot. Still, fans are now waiting for the patch notes to come out and see if there are good changes included with the DLC coming their way, as those would partly make up for the seemingly disappointing reveal.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlandsis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
