Captain Scarlett and her Pirate Booty is the first DLC part of the Season pass for Borderlands 2 and the first campaign based DLC. The journey starts out in a new town called Oasis and the main story revolves around the quest for the treasure of the legendary Captain Blade. It was described by Randy Pitchford of Gearbox as "It feels more like Tatooine than an ocean" which is interesting because the sands of Tattoine have been characterized by their almost waterlike sand dunes. For the truly geeky among us, yes that does look like a Sand Skiff in those pictures below.
The DLC is slated for an October 16, 2012 release in the states for 800 MSP on the XBox Marketplace or $9.99 on PSN or PC.
