Some sections of Borderlands 4 will challenge players more than anything previously seen in the series, Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford reckons, which has him a little nervous since some folks just want to chill out and shoot dudes without sweating.
Speaking with Insider Gaming, Pitchford affirms that "we definitely have pushed the challenge quite a lot" with Borderlands 4 and "a lot of players are going to be surprised that the challenge has ramped up quite a bit." He softly dismisses any Soulslike comparisons, and is quick to say "I'm a little nervous because there are points of Borderlands 4 that are a little more challenging," with a nod to boss battle mechanics specifically.
