  5.0

  Ultimately, despite having a cute boss fight, this DLC still leaves you feeling underwhelmed. It seems hastily thrown together, especially when compared with the creativity of the game's prior expansions. More like the broken candy cane at the bottom of your stocking, left half forgotten in the hurry of the holiday rush, than a real, heart-felt gift to fans of the franchise.

  Like the other Headhunter packs, it features a small amount of content for a relatively small amount of money. With less entertaining writing than Wattle Gobbler and fewer cool Easter eggs to find than Bloody Harvest, it may be the least valuable of the three in terms of entertainment per dollar. That said, it is not an awful piece of content, it just could have been greater with a bit more care put into it.

  Mercenary Day is easily the most successful of Borderlands 2’s Headhunter Packs, thanks to how well it captures the wit and creativity of the series. Its off-kilter take on holiday cheer kept me smiling for a half hour, but the content it offers is still too sparse and too similar to what’s come before to really impress.
