The Individual Scaling in Borderlands 4 is the latest feature that enhances the co-op experience of the game. Here are the details.
After years of anticipation and teasers, the developers have officially confirmed that Borderlands 4 features Individual Scaling Difficulty. In simple terms, it means that gamers can now individually scale and set difficulties that suit their playstyle in the game’s co-op mode. Needless to say, this feature enhances the multiplayer experience and makes it more accessible to a wider audience who just want to enjoy 2K’s looter shooter with their buddies.
What Is Individual Scaling Difficulty in Borderlands 4?
2K has made it clear that Borderlands 4 is the most polished and refined game in the franchise, naturally improving on all of its predecessors. It has smoother gameplay, better visuals, changes in weapons and their manufacturers, and a large map for players to practice their movement skills with vehicles, the grappling hook, and gliding options.
Furthermore, in a blog post on Borderland’s official website, 2K revealed a lot of new things for the game, including PC requirements, upcoming features, and a wide range of customization options from subtitles to color presets. The post also confirmed the much-awaited Individual Scaling, making Borderlands 4 the first game in the franchise to feature it.
Individual Scaling of the difficulty settings means that the latest installment in the looter shooter IP will give players the option to set their own levels of difficulty in co-op mode, and no one will have to be stuck in one particular setting. This allows everyone to enjoy the game at their own pace while playing with their friends without compromising or ruining their experience. Currently, there are three difficulty settings in Borderlands 4: Easy, Normal, and Hard. The Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode is also available, but you must reach the Endgame to unlock it.

How Does Individual Scaling Work in Borderlands 4?
2K’s decision to add Individual Scaling for difficulty in Borderlands 4 not only makes it more accessible but also reveals a lot about the game’s leveling design.
Since players can set a particular mode for themselves, even in co-op, it means that the game’s difficulty setting is created around the user rather than the enemy. When you crank it up, instead of making your foes spongier or tougher, Borderlands 4 makes you take more damage from every attack.
Additionally, many games provide fewer resources in higher difficulties to make the experience harder. However, Gearbox Software deviates from that formula this time and gives extra cash and better loot items as an incentive and reward to the player.
