Missing Weapon Makers in Borderlands 4 Stir Fan Reactions

Gaming enthusiasts are voicing concerns over the absence of beloved weapon manufacturers in the upcoming Borderlands 4.

Summary

  • The highly-anticipated Borderlands 4 will not include all previous weapon manufacturers, notably siding with fan favorites like Atlas and Dahl.
  • The game promises eight main weapon manufacturers.
  • Certain absent manufacturers may come into play via the Licensed Parts system.

Borderlands 4 has been eagerly awaited within the gaming community since its announcement, culminating in a detailed preview during a dedicated PlayStation State of Play event. This session revealed impressive gameplay, introduced the new Vault Hunters, and shared significant details regarding the game’s features. Despite the unveiling of eight foundational weapon manufacturers, some renowned names were noticeably absent from the list.

Players have expressed mixed feelings; while some are upset about the absence of favorites like Dahl, others remain optimistic due to new mechanisms that may allow for creative weapon customization. With the game’s launch pushed forward from September 23 to September 12, Gearbox’s Randy Pitchford clarified that this decision was independently made, unrelated to the much-discussed GTA 6 release date. It’s important to note that this new date primarily applies to versions for PC, PS5, and Xbox, with the potential for a Switch 2 launch still up in the air.
