Handsome Jack will be the first new playable character added to Borderlands The Pre-Sequel when the first DLC pack arrives on November 11, 2014. Sold separately, the Handsome Jack Doppleganger Pack is available for $9.99 and will allow players to play as a clone of Handsome Jack with his action skill summoning two digi-Jacks to fight alongside him. 2K Australia also revealed Handsome Jack’s skill trees with the left one called “The Hero of the Story” and focuses on grenade damage and overall damage. The middle tree, called “Greater Good,” will add buffs to Jack when he’s in Fight for Your Life mode and buffs in co-op play. The third tree, “Free Enterprise,” will give Jack’s doppleganger different buffs based on the weapon manufacturer. In a way, all three of Handsome Jack’s skill trees sound similar to Claptrap’s skill trees in Borderlands The-Presequel.

Of course the upcoming Handsome Jack Doppleganger Pack is part of the $29.99 season pass. Borderlands The-Presequel is currently available for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
