"On January 29, Gearbox pushed out a new major update for Borderlands 4 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. This update adds a new photo mode, something people have been asking about for a bit now. Finally, you can take gorgeous cinematic images of yourself blasting apart rippers and aliens with a four-barreled assault rifle. Alongside that new feature came a long list of various tweaks, changes, and fixes as you might expect from a big update for a modern game in 2026."
"First, Gearbox reconfirmed that Pearlescents, a higher loot rarity level seen in past games, would be added to Borderlands 4 when the game's first expansion, "Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned," arrives in March. And you won't have to buy the DLC to start finding these rarer pieces of loot once they've been added to the looter shooter in an upcoming update. This is also when the game's first new Vault Hunter, C4SH, will be added."

The photo mode enables cinematic captures of combat with diverse weaponry and enemies. Gearbox published a 2026 roadmap confirming Pearlescents will be added with the first expansion, Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned, arriving in March, and those rarer drops will be findable without purchasing the DLC. The March update will also add the new Vault Hunter C4SH. Gearbox is developing three highly requested 2026 features including level cap increases and cross-save support.
