Players have discovered that Tiny Tina's Wonderlands launched to generally favorable reviews last week, offering a fresh but familiar experience in the expansive Borderlands universe. That s have already begun to encounter save data-related woes hardly comes as a surprise, though, especially to anyone familiar with the lost progress issues that plagued 2019's Borderlands 3 release.
Developer Gearbox Software and publisher Take-Two Interactive announced Tiny Tina's Wonderlands as a fantasy-centric Borderlands spinoff during the Geoff Keighley-hosted Summer Game Fest 2021. Notably, the adventure places a Dungeons & Dragons spin on the whimsy and over-the-top action of Borderlands, an idea that follows in the footsteps of Borderlands 2's Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep expansion - which later launched as a standalone game. And while it seems many players have gotten nothing but enjoyment out of the latest Tiny Tina-starring adventure, plenty of other s regularly run into errors that impede core game progress.
As noted by Epic Games launcher appeared upon starting the game recently, informing him of a disparity between local and cloud saves. Since the cloud save on file seemed the most up-to-date, Tassi selected it - "that lost me my progress." Popular streamer Gothalion described a similar experience in a brief Twitter thread, arguing that Borderlands needs "server-side saves."
Again, this constitutes an issue that's plagued Borderlands games for years. Why Gearbox Software and 2K Games have yet to address it remains a mystery. Without a surefire way to recover lost progress, all Tiny Tina's Wonderlands s can do is hope that Gearbox can develop a fix. Borderlands faithful should also keep their fingers crossed for server-side save solutions in the next mainline entry.
Days ahead of release, Gearbox teased its post-launch plans for Tiny Tina's Wonderlands. The Season will boast four separate content drops, featuring a seventh class, new explorable settings, additional boss characters, and a whole host of extra cosmetic items in the Butt Stallion Pack. At the time of writing, though, there's no word on when such content will begin rolling out.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
