Borderlands 4 Makes Huge Quality-of-Life Change For Veteran Players

by

A recent update to Borderlands 4 includes a convenient feature: when you start a new game with a Level 30 character, all Faction Towns and fast travel locations are automatically unlocked. This is especially helpful for players who have already finished the game and are starting a new character.

Since it came out, Borderlands 4 has received feedback about how players begin new characters. While it’s great you can start a new character at level 30 after finishing the story, many players were frustrated that they had to unlock everything again – even important locations and towns. Players who are already familiar with the game don’t want to repeat the initial tasks, so they’ve asked the developers to address this issue.

Borderlands 4 Unlocks Some Fast Travel Points For New Level 30 Characters

A recent update to Borderlands 4 automatically unlocks key locations like Faction Towns and fast travel points when you start a new character at level 30. This is a welcome improvement for experienced players, allowing them to jump into the game with a new character without having to spend time re-unlocking familiar areas.

TweetyExpert points out that a recent update to Borderlands 4 didn’t specifically mention a fix for fast travel, but the patch notes do say that fast travel stations are now unlocking as intended. Although the notes don’t directly say this affects new level 30 Vault Hunters, it appears that’s what Gearbox was referring to. The unclear language likely caused many players to miss this significant change.

After the recent adjustments to Borderlands 4, Gearbox is still making small improvements to polish the gameplay. They’re also actively developing post-launch content, with the first big story expansion planned for early 2026. Borderlands 4 is already a great game, and the coming months look promising for fans.
