Six years between Borderlands games may have been exactly what the franchise needed to reinvent and reinvigorate itself. After many (myself included) felt disappointed by Borderlands 3 for a variety of reasons, the iconic looter shooter series is back with vastly improved gameplay, a darker tone, and a whole new world to explore in Borderlands 4.
Hampered by a few very minor setbacks and worrisome PC performance in the pre-release build, this could still easily be remembered as the best Borderlands game ever made with some well-executed updates and post-launch support.
