In a statement made to Polygon, Gearbox has said that it has "been clear from the beginning" that the Borderlands 2 DLC Season Pass would only include the four initial add-on campaigns. Whilst there are no plans for a second season pass right now, the Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2, and more DLC, is incoming. "In April we celebrated the success of Borderlands 2 by thanking our most passionate fans, the Season Pass holders, by including the first Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack in the Season Pass," Gearbox told Polygon. "We were excited to give Season Pass holders $45 of value instead of the original promise of $40. Through the course of our grand experiment, we've also learned that fans are happy with an a la cart menu for DLC because they can pick and choose the content that they most want to buy and really customize their Borderlands 2 experience."

Gearbox will continue to release content beyond the initial pass because fans are still asking for it, the company said. Content expected after the Vault Hunter Upgrade include "two or three" Headhunter Packs (according to Randy Pitchford), and more besides.
"They're voting with their wallets - and we are grateful that there are enough of them asking that we can justify the cost of developing the content," Gearbox said.
Sounds fair. Fans who bought a season pass got exactly what they paid for, and now they have the choice of buying even more content besides. If Gearbox offered a second pass, would you buy it?
