Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford has called Borderlands 4's performance "pretty damn optimal" in response to complaints about the game's optimization on PC. "With Borderlands 4, every PC gamer has a lot of tools to balance their preferences between FPS, resolution, and rendering features. Pitchford insisted Borderlands 4 has "few real issues,", and those that do persist are "affecting a very, very small percentage of users." "We are also doing significant work on PC performance and, well, everything else that is coming at us. In response to Pitchford's posts, multiple players highlighted the PC performance issues they've had with Borderlands 4, primarily citing unstable frame rates, even at lower graphics settings.
