Greg Martin August 8, 2024

Borderlands 3 update 1.923 (1.32 on PS4) introduces various quality-of-life improvements designed to enhance the gameplay experience across all platforms. A notable addition is the capability for players to create a Max Level Character directly from the main menu, provided they have already completed the game and have at least one character at the maximum level. This feature simplifies the process for veteran players who desire to explore the game with different character builds without the necessity to replay the entire campaign.

In addition, an auto-sell feature has been integrated, allowing players to automatically sell gear based on its rarity. This option can be configured from the main menu and ensures that items below a certain rarity are sold upon pickup, freeing up inventory space and reducing the need for manual management. The update also includes a specific notice regarding mission gear, advising players to disable the auto-sell option before completing missions to avoid accidentally selling valuable reward items. Furthermore, the update addresses accessibility by increasing the font size of text in the Options Menu for players using Steam Deck, enhancing readability on the handheld device.
