May 20: With rising concerns about the increasing cost of video games, some players are wondering if future titles will start launching at $80, a price point that’s becoming more common in the current generation. In light of this, Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford shared some thoughts on the topic via X (formerly Twitter), especially in relation to Borderlands 4, which has been confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2.
When asked by a fan whether Borderlands 4 would be priced at $80, Pitchford responded by saying, “If you’re a real fan, you’ll find a way to make it happen.” He added that the final price point is ultimately not his decision, and that it’s likely up to publisher Take-Two Interactive.
According to former PlayStation executive Shuhei Yoshida, the company generally didn’t think of Nintendo as competition. The only exception to this is in Japan, where the Big N dominates.

Whereas PlayStation and Xbox have often released similar hardware, Nintendo tends to take a different approach – especially with its last few systems – and maintains “a different audience.”
