Borderlands 4 pre-orders confirm it isn't an $80 game after all

2K and Gearbox have finally opened up Borderlands 4 pre-orders, and the looter shooter isn’t launching as an $80 game. Instead, you can purchase the standard edition for $70, with multiple upgrade options offering the base game and DLC for up to $130 total. With major triple-A releases like Xbox’s The Outer Worlds 2 taking the leap to $80 price tags, there was an expectation that B4 could do the same. After checking the Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam storefronts, however, it doesn’t look like that’s happening.
