Below the Surface, Borderlands 4, As Rafa, Scene 3

Borderlands 4, released September 12, 2025, continues the beloved looter-shooter saga on next-gen consoles and PC. Set six years after its predecessor, the game transports players to the newly introduced planet Kairos, a world rich with ancient mysteries and oppressed by the tyrannical Timekeeper. Players assume the role of one of four distinct Vault Hunters—Rafa, Harlowe, Amon, or Vex—each boasting unique skills to battle the Timekeeper's synthetic army and aid the local Crimson Resistance. The game boasts a seamless, open-world Kairos with enhanced traversal mechanics like grappling and gliding, alongside a dynamic day-night cycle and weather. The mission "Below the Surface" exemplifies Borderlands 4's signature blend of dark humor and tragedy. Found in the Terminus District, this side quest tasks players with exploring a submerged research facility, the Hydrus Sublab, run by the Order. Players encounter Ted, an escaped test subject, who implores them to uncover the facility's unethical experiments. The mission transitions into a tense dungeon crawl, using new movement mechanics to navigate claustrophobic, waterlogged corridors filled with mutated horrors. ECHO logs reveal the horrific "Phase Energy" processing. The mission culminates in a tragic twist: Ted, the survivor players sought to help, transforms into the boss "CorrupTed" due to the experiments, forcing the Vault Hunter to put him down, a poignant reminder of the Order's devastating impact.
