Borderlands 3 has received a surprise update that introduces several quality-of-life enhancements, including the ability to create a max-level character from the main menu after completing the game once with a max-level character. This feature allows players to quickly access endgame content without starting over, appealing to veteran players. Additionally, an auto-sell feature has been added, enabling players to automatically sell gear below a specified rarity as soon as it is picked up, while also improving text readability for Steam Deck users. The update coincides with the disappointing release of the Borderlands movie, which has garnered a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, highlighting ongoing skepticism about video game adaptations. Despite the movie's poor reception, the update aims to reignite interest in the game and its endgame content. Gearbox Software's focus on enhancing player experience reflects their commitment to maintaining player engagement long after the game's initial launch in 2019.
