You might be thinking, ‘Having the Borderlands games ranked should be a hard feat, they’re all varied and great titles in their own way!’ And you’re right, well, partially. Gearbox Software let loose the planet of Pandora in 2009. Since then, it has spawned into a huge franchise that had its very own hits and misses throughout the years.

We’ve decided to rank them for you today from the worst Borderlands games to the best. Simply because ranking games is a great way for you to figure out which ones are worth playing. We don’t want you wasting your time on a terrible game and giving up on the franchise entirely! Especially since the Borderlands series is one of the best out there.

This was an ambitious attempt by Gearbox to bring the beloved game onto mobile devices. Sadly, what resulted was a disappointing mess. The game provided no challenge to its players and lacked any substantial content for players to want to continue playing. Just for that, Legends places last on our Borderlands games ranked list.

This one came out five years after the first game, so there were a lot of expectations for it to be better than the first. Yet, expectations were not quite met. It’s not bad, but it held too many similarities to the first game when it could have been so much more.

Here’s the game that started it all! We’ve decided to place it lower down on this Borderlands games ranked list. Not because it’s bad, but because we feel like you would have a better time playing the franchise’s more updated games. It has been about 13 years since its release after all.
