Borderlands the Pre-Sequel is getting updated from time to time with patches, but the game is also getting hotfixes just like Borderlands 2.  A hotfix is a little update to the game that is automatically applied when you start up the game and are on the “Press Start” screen in Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. Your PC or Console (Playstation 3,  Playstation 4, Xbox 360, or Xbox One) needs to be connected to the internet.

A hotfix in general will temporarily address certain issues within the game between major updates that come in the form of a patch. This way Gearbox Software can quickly and easily fix some bugs, balance problems, or other issues within the game.  As these hotfixes aren’t permitted they are stored temporarily in the memory and are lost when you exit the game. A patch on the other hand contains updates that are permanently stored on your system.

If you encounter some sort of issue there might be a solution to your problem in the knowledge base or you can submit a ticket.

  1. Could you please fix the damn backpack bug? I paid 350 moonstones for 39 spaces and now only have 33. You have known abut this issue since December. Why isn’t it fixed? This is a MAJOR ISSUE!

    • You can never have enough backpack size. Patching on the consoles is expensive and it can take a while before it’s approved by the platform holder. So developers like to bundle their fixes rather than fixing one bug at the time. During Pax South Gearbox has said that 2K worked on a patch that fixes respawnable bosses.

      So hopefully the backpack issue will also be resolved.

    • I agree, not only is Sarah HOT, but Gearbox should not have taken over 2 1/2 months to still ignore this. It is a major issue.

  2. Installed the update, and while it recognized my bl2 save, and finally awarded me with the skin, most of my hard earned skins and heads were gone. Some of those were not easy to obtain. This was on my level 50 Wilhelm. My friend was playing with me at this time and somehow obtained the tales skin and head pack, and got a turkey head. Please fix.
