Gearbox Software released a Borderlands 4 patch on Friday that automatically clears outdated shaders after version updates to address performance issues on PC. The update primarily focuses on balance adjustments that strengthen several Vault Hunters, and developers noted Amon received multiple changes to match the power level of other characters. Vex's summoning abilities and Rafa's melee damage were enhanced for endgame viability, while Harlowe's Stasis skill received refinements.
The patch modified Weekly Activities by transforming the Big Encore Boss into a harder variant with improved loot rewards. Weekly Wildcard Missions guarantee repeatable Legendary drops for optimal equipment rolls. Gearbox delayed the Nintendo Switch 2 version indefinitely on Sept. 23 after canceling preorders, but the studio previewed C4SH as the first post-launch Vault Hunter whose abilities center on luck mechanics.
