It’s been a whopping six years since the last mainline Borderlands title, and gaming has changed a lot. To that end, Borderlands 4 isn’t just a sequel; it’s a chance for the franchise to return to its roots and realize its grand ambitions.
“This is a Borderlands game through and through, but it’s seamless,” Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford tells Inverse. “That’s always been the ambition, we just couldn’t – because you have these load times, and we have to pinch you off and make a transition and just move data around, make you wait while we load s*** in. The technology finally caught up to that ambition.”
