Borderlands 4 Players Report Performance Issues on PS5 Pro,Temporary Fix Involves Restarting Game
Jakarta,Indonesia – Players experiencing extended gameplay sessions of Borderlands 4 on the PlayStation 5 Pro are reporting performance degradation,prompting a workaround suggested by both the community and Gearbox Software. Users on Reddit and elsewhere have noted that prolonged play leads to noticeable issues, with a potential cause identified as accumulating memory leaks.
The problem appears to stem from a build-up of data within the console’s engine, impacting stability and responsiveness over time. The currently recommended solution, shared widely by players and confirmed by Gearbox CEO and Development Chief Randy Pitchford via a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), is to simply restart the game. This clears the accumulated memory and restores performance to optimal levels.
Pitchford indicated this is the best available course of action until a formal patch addressing the underlying issue can be deployed by the development team. The issue affects players on the PS5 Pro specifically, and highlights the challenges developers face optimizing for new hardware iterations. Gamers are advised to save frequently and anticipate the need to reboot the game periodically for a smooth experiance. Further updates will be provided as gearbox works on a permanent fix.
