Borderlands 4 Gets Pearlescent Loot With Legend of the Stone Demon DLC

Borderlands 4's Legend of the Stone Demon DLC (Bounty Pack 2) adds a Kairos-based story mission with three mini-bosses and a final boss, plus Pearlescent loot across the game—including a Vault Card with 24 cosmetics and four re-rollable gear items, along with new Vault Hunter skins, a vehicle skin, and a Drone skin. Pearlescent loot isn’t gated to Bounty Pack 2 owners and will appear in other content and a future world event; the premium add-on launches February 26, 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (the first Bounty Pack was free).
