Borderlands 4 player, I hope you're ready to have your hands full. Gearbox's latest looter shooter is about to get a ton of stuff. It begins on February 26 – with Bounty Pack 2: Legend of the Stone Demon, the first paid Borderlands 4 DLC, plus what Gearbox calls in an announcement a "major update" bringing the new Pearlescent rarity tier. Later, in March, Borderlands 4 is set to receive its first Story Pack, Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned, which will introduce the new playable Vault Hunter C4SH. Yeah, that's a lot of stuff, no matter how you break it down. And it'll cost… more money, no matter how you break it down. The Borderlands 4 Bounty Pack Bundle, which encompasses Bounty Pack 2 through 5, is $40 ($20 less than the price of the base game), though Gearbox says you can also buy each Pack individually. Story Pack 1 does not yet have a price tag, but you can wishlist it now on Steam, Epic, and the Xbox store. Borderlands 4 will continue to be supported says Gearbox owner, and "we still are very optimistic about that title" As Borderlands 4 developer Gearbox decides to make the looter shooter's first DLC pack free for everyone, Deluxe Edition players aren't too happy: "I'm calling bulls**t" Gearbox is "avoiding nerfs" for Borderlands 4: "I wholeheartedly want to avoid ruining someone's countless hours" "As a quick refresher," says Gearbox, "Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned will introduce an all-new region of Kairos, new story missions, and the first new Vault Hunter for Borderlands 4." This Hunter, C4SH, was a casino dealer bot before he started Indiana Jones-ing for cursed artifacts. Still, his Action Skills revolve around the high-stakes unpredictability he became accustomed to in his gambling days, and Gearbox says to anticipate "good fortunes like buffing himself and allies, dealing devastating damage, sapping the strength from foes, and more." If your fortune would prefer to stay in your bank account, however, the Borderlands 4 update bringing Pearlescent tier – which is better than Legendary – will be available to everyone. Borderlands 4 will continue to be supported says Gearbox owner, and "we still are very optimistic about that title" despite launch being a "bit softer than we would've liked."
