9 pop culture characters created by players in Tiny Tina's Wonderlands: Shrek, Kratos, and more

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands has got off to a flying start, and the game's reception has been positive. The fantasy-themed FPS is a spinoff of the main Borderlands series and retains many of the elements that made the earlier games great. While fans can't seem to get enough of the title, the game's character creator mode has been a surprise hit. Thanks to the number of options available to the players, the results have been diverse and creative.

Following the success of Tiny Tina: Assault on Dragon Keep DLC, Gearbox decided to launch a stand-alone game. Released on March 25, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands has been a colorful montage of different elements. The possibilities with the game's character creator are near endless, which gives players plenty of opportunities to showcase their talents.
