Borderlands 4 will be released on September 12 for PS5 and XSX| S and PC. Recently, Gearbox Software CEO Randy
Pitchford said that this game is better than its predecessor and will be an entry point for new players.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Pitchford emphasized that the development team’s goal is to not only give back to old players, but also to attract new players. Borderlands 4 has an important mission to lower the barrier to entry for potential new players. This strategic direction is also supported by historical data.
Pitchford explains, “For example, from Borderlands 2 to Borderlands 3, about a third of our players are new to the series. Therefore, the new game must take into account two missions: to make it accessible to new players while retaining the essence familiar to old players. ”
In interviews, Pitchford reiterated that even if you’ve never played the series, Borderlands 4 is a great place to start.
Pitchford emphasized that they have made the world of Borderlands 4 more expansive, open and free, “There is a link in the game where you can choose to go to three different story locations and choose according to your preference, and you will also enter some very vast new areas. This is the largest world we have created, and we do not limit players. ”
