Borderlands 4 September 18th Update Released – Full Patch Notes

Gearbox has just released the September 18th Title Update for Borderlands 4 and shared its full patch notes. So, let’s see what this new patch brings to the table.

The September 18th Patch is around 800MB in size. According to the changelog, there aren’t any performance tweaks or improvements. Instead, the game focuses on improving its stability.

Going into more details, this new update fixes crashes tied to animation states, audio, and collision checks. Moreover, it addresses various GPU-related crashes. So, in theory, the game should be more stable on your PC. For what it’s worth, I’ve never had any major stability issues. I’m not saying there aren’t issues. Perhaps I was lucky with my PC system. Still, it’s good to see the devs doing something about it.

This new patch also fixes some other issues. For example, it fixed a bug in the “Talk to Zadra” mission where the objective could fail if players quit and relaunched during dialogue. It also fixed an issue where the Reward Center stopped working after claiming the Gilded Glory Pack rewards. On top of that, it updated loot pools so Gilded Glory Pack guns will no longer appear in normal chests.

Despite what Randy Pitchford has said publicly, Gearbox has stated that it’s aware of the performance issues and that it will be looking into them. The devs said this is a top priority for them. So, let’s see whether we’ll get a performance patch for it.

Like always, Steam will download this patch the next time you launch its client. Below, you can also find its complete changelog.
