Sometime in the next couple months, a new playable character will be added to Battleborn's roster of fighters. Ernest will be the 28th Battleborn, an explosion expert bird complete with a grenade launcher and tactical army outfit. [Excerpt]
Ernest will be free to all players with 47,500 credits earned in-game. He can also be unlocked by using a Hero Key, which are included in the Season Pass. No specific date has been given for the official arrival of Ernest, but two other free DLC characters are currently in the works as well.
Past DLC characters include Alani and Pendles, who is available for download today for Digital Deluxe owners and Season Pass holders on all platforms. He will be available to all other players starting August 4. For more Battleborn check out our review, or our Test Chamber where we went hands on with the story missions
