Highlights

Borderlands 3, despite being nearly four years old, received a new update from Gearbox Software, adding new customizations and cosmetics for players to enjoy.

The update was launched alongside Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box, which features the complete trilogy, The Pre-Sequel, and both Tales from the Borderlands games.

Included in the update are fresh Vault Hunter heads, skins, weapon trinkets, and a worldwide weapon skin. Additionally, previously difficult-to-acquire cosmetics are now available at Crazy Earl's Shop.

Despite being nearly four years old, Borderlands 3 continues to receive support from Gearbox Software. The popular looter-shooter game was initially released to positive reviews and has since been consistently enhanced with fresh content, bug fixes, balance adjustments, and paid DLC. Although the pace of post-launch updates has slowed down recently, the most recent major update in June 2022 addressed lingering issues and introduced cross-play support between PS4 and PS5 consoles. Fans of Borderlands 3 can now download the latest update from Gearbox across all platforms.

The latest Borderlands 3 update introduces four new Vault Hunter heads, four Vault Hunter skins, four weapon trinkets, and a new global weapon skin. It also adds exclusive cosmetics to Crazy Earl's Shop, making it easier for players to collect them. The SHiFT menu has been refreshed, Eridian writing has been adjusted, a bug with the Pain Freeze icon has been fixed, and the Fright Light weapon trinket now shines brighter. Other updates include credits and special thanks, minor UI fixes, and bug fixes. It is uncertain if this will be the final update for Borderlands 3, but if it is, it goes out with a bang.

Some Borderlands fans may question why Borderlands 3 received an update even after regular support for the game ended. The update coincides with the release of Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box, a comprehensive collection featuring the core trilogy, The Pre-Sequel, and both Tales from the Borderlands games in one package. The collection also includes all the DLCs from the Borderlands series.
