Although Borderlands 4 was released 15 days ago, it did not prevent Gearbox from revealing its first of two planned new hunters for the recently released Looter Shooter. During the panel for this year's Tokyo Game Show, Randy Pitchford et al. He revealed the C4sh, the first vault hunter to be launched at the beginning of 2026, along with the new content of the story.
C4SH is described as a former casino retailer who has left his daily work to become a vault hunter after seeing players have good or bad because of his happiness. It sounds a lot like a FL4K story Finding Free Will, although it is not clear whether there is any relationship.
As Pitchford himself described, C4SH uses “his understanding of chance and probability for the results to be random”. Specifically, he will have access to playing cards and dice and is established all around happiness – he has become powerful happiness or weak thanks to bad luck.
In addition to having a story similar to FL4K from Borderlands 3, the C4sh will have a ton of inspiration from Pitchford's real exploitation. During the panel, Pitchford explained his love for poker, cards and tricks, and how the animators used it for their own tricks on hand C4SH.
C4sh will be accompanied by a story of DLC
The package to be scheduled to arrive to arrive will make their debut at some point in the 4th quarter of 2026, which means at any time between January and March. According to Borderlands 4, the main story missions, new locations, new side missions, new legendary weapons and new cosmetics will help to exclude what is called “Mad Ellie and a safe damn”.
According to Gearbox, the extension is described as the following:
The first story package will be a bloody, cosmic horror-inspired story called Mad Ellie and a safe damn. As you may have guessed, one and only Ellie, Pandoran Mechanic Menordinaire and daughter Moxxi play it.
That's all we can say about narrative specifics at the moment, but you can look forward to new and Returning characters in every story. In other words, expect to see a well -known face or two in the other story. Meanwhile, you will have to stay tuned for more detail.
Comparison of Pitchford aside, C4sh sounds like the closest thing we will have to play as a gambit from the X-Men series, or for those who love anime, kite from Hunter x Hunter.
