Borderlands 4

Description

Borderlands 4, released in late 2025, continues the franchise's signature blend of chaotic gunplay, outlandish humor, and deep loot customization. Developed by Gearbox Software, this installment whisks players away to the alien world of Kairos, a planet brimming with unique environments and a tyrannical ruler known as the Timekeeper. Players take on the role of new Vault Hunters, each equipped with distinct abilities, tasked with joining a local resistance to overthrow the Timekeeper and uncover the secrets of Kairos's legendary Vaults. The game features a seamless open-world experience across four diverse regions, enhanced traversal mechanics, and an ever-present array of zany weaponry. Within this vibrant and often messy universe, a particularly engaging side mission called "One Slimy Issue" stands out. This quest, given by the eccentric NPC Beth in the Dominion region, centers around restoring a local surveillance system. What makes this mission delightfully peculiar is its heavy reliance on a specific environmental mechanic: the strategic use of Locust Gas canisters. Players are immediately confronted with a "Bio-Armored" door, an organic barrier that standard weaponry cannot penetrate. The solution lies in fetching and hurling corrosive Locust Gas canisters, which dissolve the armor, allowing access. This unique interaction, where players must actively engage with and manipulate the environment rather than solely relying on brute force, sets a distinct tone. The "slimy" aspect escalates within Beth's basement, where computer terminals are also shielded by bio-armor. Precision is key as players must toss gas canisters through gaps or across rooms to clear the path for rebooting systems. This mechanic then extends into the open world, demanding players use the gas to overcome obstacles before even engaging in combat or retrieving vital components. The culmination of this environmental puzzle design is a boss encounter against the "Bio-Thresher Omega." This formidable foe is encased in perpetual bio-armor, requiring a constant cycle of dodging attacks, retrieving gas canisters from a central dispenser, and timing throws to strip its defenses before dealing damage. This ingenious integration of environmental mechanics into combat and puzzle-solving makes "One Slimy Issue" a prime example of Borderlands 4’s evolved and thoroughly enjoyable gameplay.
