Given that Borderlands 4 isn&#8217;t available in any subscription service right now, it stands to reason that the full-priced sales figure is about that amount as well, then.<\/p>\n<p>This player number figure has resulted in revenues of more than $150 million for Take-Two, with $80 million of that coming from Steam alone. Valve&#8217;s PC platform has also managed more than 300,000 concurrent Borderlands 4 players since launch &#8211; <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/steamdb.info\/app\/1285190\/charts\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">that record<\/a> was achieved the weekend following the game&#8217;s release.<\/p>\n<p>It seems that Borderlands 4 is doing pretty well so far then, even with those console and PC performance issues we mentioned up at the top. It had previously been six years since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.purexbox.com\/games\/xbox-one\/borderlands_3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Borderlands 3<\/a> in 2019, likely creating considerable demand for this year&#8217;s sequel. Here&#8217;s hoping the team continues to patch the game up and that players have a smoother experience in the coming weeks and months after launch.<\/p>\n<p>Impressed by these figures?
