Handsome Jack is here to give you some moon survival tips in a new video for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.

The playgrounds of Borderlands are already considered pretty vast, but Gearbox is looking to change some of the rules that come with blasting everything in sight. For example, shooting bandits on the moon will be pretty different from shooting bandits on Pandora, as Handsome Jack helpfully explains in a new video for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.

Jack starts to reel off some of the qualities of moon combat, like the game's anti-gravity double jumps, while also offering some pointers on upgrading the game's new characters. While it doesn't touch on anything more than what was seen at E3, it's still an interesting look at the new setting for the latest Borderlands adventure. Take a look at it below.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

  This article made me wonder how the DLC for Aliens Colonial Marines went down. 11 Multiplayer maps and a Gamemode in 3 DLC and a Singleplayer story in the 4th. Good job filling all that demand for more MP Maps!!!!
  I'm really 'glad' that DLC is sold now before knowing whether anyone wants more of the game. And then sell it even knowing no one wants more of the game.

    don't worry it was all outsourced and all the companies responsible have already been shuttered.

  I liked BL1. I loved BL2. But this one. I'm not sure why I should buy this one. Maybe it's just too soon. They release schedules are just burning me out. No. It's that you have to play the game with the same char twice to actually get to the hard level. That's what's doing it. Shit. you have 5 chars. Why can't I play on hard the first time through for each character? Why do I have to play it through on retard the first time?

    my policy for any Gearbox game is to wait until all the DLC is released and then wait for a steam sale. BL2 with all the DLC was a good deal for $15 a few months ago.

  I hope they make the game balanced and not rely on announcing virtual keys every couple of weeks. I never played BL2 so may be they just released keys for chest to get free advertising.

    Using that chest just breaks the game if you do it first play-through. Only good for other playthroughs where you don't give a stink anymore.
