Borderlands 4
Borderlands 4 expansion and update verdicts, with clear advice on paid story content and free progression changes.
Version 1.10 raises the level cap for everyone, while Story Pack 2 adds Loveless and a new Providence story for owners.
Story Pack 2, FL4K and the Last Resort, arrived September 10 alongside Version 1.10. The update separates a paid narrative expansion from broader progression changes, including a level-cap increase available to all players.
Is now a good time to return?
It is a strong return point if you want a new Vault Hunter and another Providence story, or if the free level-cap increase is enough to restart your build. Confirm which parts are included with your purchase before reinstalling for the expansion.
What should you check first?
Story Pack 2 adds the Loveless the Hacker and its story; Version 1.10 raises the cap by ten for everyone. Bounty Pack 5 supplies a separate repeatable mission, boss, and gear loop, so decide whether you want narrative content or more endgame repetition.
Start with the newest verdict.
Borderlands 4 Story Pack 2 Adds Loveless and a New Providence Story
The paid story pack, free progression increase, and Bounty Pack 5 are distinct reasons to return—and not the same purchase.
