Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford is Saying Things on Twitter again, and well, let's just start with the bad.

Pitchford's talking about the price of Borderlands 4 again. After Pitchford completely submerged himself in hot water by saying "real fans" would fork up the $80 for Borderlands 4 if it indeed ended up costing that much, and then kind of sort of apologizing, publisher 2K opened up pre-orders for the game and confirmed that the base game starts at $70, and the internet silently unclenched its jaw.

"I am so stoked that Borderlands 4 is $69.99 and not $80," Pitchford said in a tweet. "I am so stoked we’re not doing any paid early access stuff and moved the date earlier to Sept 12. I am stoked that we are planning a TON of awesome DLC."

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
