Borderlands 3 has gotten a hotfix for some pressing, but easily fixable issues. Read on to find out the full patch notes.
Borderlands 3 received a hotfix to take care of some issues within the game. Most of the bugs and balances issues listed are pretty easy fixes in the grand scheme of things, so don’t expect any significant system fixes at this point. Most of the balance changes center around drop rates, pulling back a little on the loot pinata nature of the game.
No mention of things like menu lag, multiplayer issues, or more important matters of that nature, so I assume fixes for those problems are more involved and complicated. I would expect a sizeable patch to come down the pipeline to address these issues.
