New Borderlands 4 update brings stability improvements "for a wide range of PCs"

A new Borderlands 4 update today offers developer Gearbox's first salvo at tackling the performance complaints for the PC version of its long-awaited looter shooter. If you've been playing as much as I have, you've likely encountered texture pop-in, lag, frame rate drops, crashes, or other issues. This BL4 patch is the first post-launch attempt to solve those problems, and while it's unlikely everything will be ironed out immediately, it feels like a step in the right direction for me. Alongside this, Gearbox has also added two more free skins to its release-weekend rewards.
