Borderlands 4 laughs in the face of Borderlands 3's 1 billion guns as Gearbox says there's 30 billion this time, which the devs kept track of using a Matrix-style "wall" of weapons

Borderlands 4.

I hope you weren't planning on getting too attached to any one weapon in Borderlands 4, because Gearbox is touting the 30 billion number this time around.

Since Borderlands was birthed onto the scene back in 2009, the series' go-to talking point is just how many guns it has. It started with 87 bazillion (17,750,000) guns in the original game, and since then, the number of guns has grown with each entry at a pace equal to how much worse the comedy has gotten, with Borderlands 3's 1 billion. And now that we're two console generations ahead and procedural generation has gotten way more elaborate, Gearbox is now touting even more guns.
