Ever wonder what happens to all those ECHO logs that don't end up in Vault Hunters' hands? Find out in Borderlands: Dead ECHOs, Gearbox’s first scripted narrative podcast, a darkly comedic drama set in the chaotic Borderlands universe.
In the crazy, cruel badlands of Pandora, two loners forge a connection based on easy money, tenuous trust, and a love for sticking it to well-financed bullies. But what happens when their silly scams start to uncover a full-tilt corporate coup involving cyborg assassins?
Borderlands: Dead ECHOs follows Watts, a disenchanted DAHL ECHO Operator, who supplements his meager pay by sifting lucrative secrets from undeliverable ECHO logs and selling them to the highest bidder. When Junie, a curious stranger with big ideas, gets him out of a jam, the two strike up an unlikely partnership. As Junie injects a daring Robin Hood twist into Watts’ amateur criminal enterprise, their ECHO-brokering operation draws attention from ruthless mercenaries, violent outlaws, and DAHL’s deadly corporate hit squad lead by power-hungry rogue executive, Vivian Proctor.
The first episode of Borderlands: Dead ECHOs is available now via YouTube, Spotify, Amazon, Apple, iHeart Radio, and Pandora, with new episodes of this limited series debuting weekly over the next couple of months. Tune in for this throwback to the mayhem-filled days spent on Pandora, then come back each week to see how these new stories unfold!
