Borderlands: The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned

Description

"Borderlands: The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned" is the first DLC for the acclaimed action role-playing game "Borderlands." Released on November 24, 2009, it transports players to the eerie town of Jakobs Cove, where the chilling atmosphere diverges from the vibrant aesthetics of the base game. In this expansion, players uncover the sinister experiments of Dr. Ned, whose unethical practices have turned the town's residents into horrific undead creatures. One of the main bosses players encounter is Hank Reiss, a tragic figure and a wereskag, the result of a failed experiment involving an antidote derived from skag DNA. Once a devoted family man working at the Jakobs mill, Hank's life took a dark turn when he sought Dr. Ned's help amid the zombie outbreak. Trusting the doctor, he volunteered for a cure that instead transformed him into a mindless monster, showcasing the dire consequences of misplaced trust in authority. Players face Hank during the mission "There May Be Some Side Effects..." at Generally Hospital. His remarkable speed and powerful melee attacks make him a challenging adversary. However, he has weaknesses that players can exploit, particularly to fire-based attacks, and targeting his open mouth will yield critical hits. Hank's berserk ability also complicates the fight, allowing him to regenerate and increase his speed and strength when his health dips low. Beyond his role as a boss, Hank's story is enriched through ECHO recordings scattered throughout Jakobs Cove, providing insights into his tragic fate and the impact of Dr. Ned’s experiments. The optional mission "Missing: Hank Reiss" deepens this narrative, inviting players to investigate his disappearance and learn more about the grim realities faced by the residents. Ultimately, Hank Reiss is not just a formidable foe but a poignant reminder of the horrors of scientific experimentation and the tragic consequences of blind faith in promises of salvation.
