Borderlands 3's PC Version, An Epic Store Exclusive, Is A Massive Success Already

Borderlands 3 launched on PC as an Epic Games Store exclusive, a decision that generated some amount of controversy. Now, Gearbox's Randy Pitchford has revealed that the PC version of Borderlands 3 is off to a tremendous start.

The executive said the number of peak concurrent players--that is, the highest number of people playing at the same time--is around double the all-time peak concurrent player record set by Borderlands 2. "WoW! You guys are great!" Pitchford exclaimed.

The launch-day peak concurrent user milestone didn't stand for long, as Borderlands 3 grew even larger in the days after release, Pitchford said.

"This greatly exceeds expectations, and our systems seem to be holding strong!" Pitchford said about the record-breaking numbers.

Borderlands 3 is exclusive on PC to the Epic Games Store until April 2020, at which time it may launch on Steam and other digital storefronts.

There is no word on how the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Borderlands 3 are performing from a user perspective, but more information should become available in due course.
