Avast, ye vituperative vault hunters! The first of Borderlands 2's DLC mini-campaigns launches today, the merry adventure of Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty, naturally accompanied by a trailer showing off some of the scurvy dogs and nasty mobs you'll be shooting. You can watch it now with your eyes.

The DLC sends players off to Pirate Bay in search of, what else, treasure. It adds new areas, enemies such as Sand Pirates and Anchormen, quests, unique weapons and loot, and other jazz.

Captain Scarlett will run you $10, or it's included with three other similar, yet-unrevealed packs in the $30 Season Pass. There will be more DLC not included with the Season Pass, mind, beyond the Mechromancer class released last week.

      Whats the point in calling it a Season Pass if not all the DLC will be included? You don't buy a Season ticket for a football team only to be told "ah no, you can't see todays match. Come back next week!"

        whats the point in putting in item descriptions that tell you exactly what you're going to be getting with what you purchase when people won't read them and spend weeks complaining about ultimately inconsequential things?

          That is not the point. It is just a very bad name.

            When people blindly buy stuff and don't read what they're getting, the name is totally irrelevant. Don't try to excuse being a bad (lol, good?) consumer.

              I didn't buy it and I would have read the item description so it's not an issue for me. I'm just saying it is badly named as Season Pass has a very clear connotation. (I see mancide's comment below, and I guess that makes more sense. I still think it is dumb but perhaps other gamers are used to it by now).

                i was making the comment towards anyone who just buys stuff without looking at what they're purchasing.

                if the description said it came with 'all borderlands 2 dlc!', then yeah, i'd be throwing my complaints in with them. but it never said that, it said what it came with very clearly. it's so damn silly that people are bitching about it still.

        I know they were upfront with what was included, but it's really the stupidest name ever.

          Saints Row used the term "season pass" and it didn't include all subsequent content.

          Forza 4 used the term "season pass" and it didn't include all subsequent content.

          Gears 3 used the term "season pass" and it didn't include all subsequent content (mainly weapon skins).

          Age of Empries Online used the term "season pass" and it didn't include all subsequent content (mainly decoration items).

          The term "season pass" has come to mean you are paying for a "season" of content up-front. That content does not have to include everything.

            I guess that makes more sense. Still don't like the name, but perhaps others are used to it.

        It's like getting football season tickets for the games but not the press conferences and practices

        You're getting access to the season of games. Doesn't mean they are going to throw in the team jersey and foam finger for free.
