Borderlands 4's jetpack and grappling hook were prophesied 6 years ago through a Borderlands 3 joke poking fun at the era's FPS tropes by shooting them into space

Borderlands 4.

A Borderlands 3 joke seemingly predicted some of Borderlands 4's biggest new additions six whole years ago.

Redditor No-Heat3462 spotted an easy-to-miss joke that appears in the game's central hub, the spaceship of Sanctuary 3. In one section, Ellie needs to make some room and put out a fire, but by opening the vent into space, some initially inconspicuous items also get sucked into the void.
