Borderlands 4's Pearlescent Rarity May Be Why Some Beloved Weapons Were Cut
Borderlands 4’s returning Pearlescent are exciting, but they may be behind the exclusion of some of the series most iconic weaponry.
The return of Pearlescent gear in Borderlands 4 is undoubtedly exciting, but for fans dreaming of the return of classic Pearls like the Hyperion Nemesis, it might also serve as a painful reminder that four of the franchise's major manufacturers will not be returning. Interestingly enough, it's also entirely possible that the two design decisions might be connected. Given the franchise's history, the lack of weapons from certain manufacturers in Borderlands 4 might have been a calculated trade-off, specifically to ensure the successful implementation of Pearlescent weapons.
