'Borderlands 2' available on PlayStation Network on release day

PlayStation 3 players can download "Borderlands 2" off the PlayStation Network on its release day, PlayStation says.

Borderlands 2 will be available to download from the PlayStation Store at launch on September 18th, Playstation revealed on its Blogcast late yesterday.

A digital copy will cost $59.99, same as retail, and will be available when the PlayStation Store updates on Tuesday. The European Store already has Borderlands 2 available for pre-order, so players across the pond can get started on the download early.

Borderlands 2 is coming to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC next week. There is still time to pre-order the game and snag Premium Club membership.
