Borderlands 4 has introduced a fun new feature: Photo Mode! This lets you capture stunning moments as you explore the world of Kairos. Whether it’s epic battles or calm scenic views, now you can show off your best shots.
To use Photo Mode, simply hit the new button in the pause menu during gameplay. You can move the camera around using normal controls, tailoring your photos to your liking. It’s easier than ever to pause the chaos and set up your perfect shot, especially in single-player mode.
Online multiplayer also allows Photo Mode, but keep in mind that the game won’t pause. This adds a bit of challenge as you try to get that perfect snapshot while dodging enemies or coordinating with friends.
Ready to save your masterpiece? Each platform has a different screenshot method:
- PC: Use F12 or Print Screen
- PS5: Press the Share button
- Xbox Series X|S: Use the Capture button
Your captured images won’t save directly in Borderlands 4 but will go into your platform’s default photo folder, making it easy to find and share later.
Photo Mode is only available during gameplay, so no sneaky pictures during cutscenes! It’s also not supported in splitscreen mode on consoles.
Many players are excited about this feature. On social media, fans are sharing their incredible captures and tagging @Borderlands, showing the game’s vibrant visuals and chaotic action.
Customize Your Shots
Photo Mode offers a variety of settings to make your shots pop, including:
- Lens Settings: Adjust the field of view or roll the camera for creative angles.
- Depth of Field: Create blurred backgrounds or foregrounds for focus.
- Brightness and Contrast: Tweak the light and dark areas of your image.
- Film Effects: Add visual filters to give your pictures a unique look.
With the right adjustments, you can dramatically change the mood of a shot. For example, applying a vintage filter can add a nostalgic feel, while boosting brightness can make an action scene more dramatic.
Did you know that user engagement with photo-sharing features often leads to a 20% increase in community interaction? This highlights how much players enjoy showcasing their creativity in-game.
To make your shots official, use overlays like the Borderlands logo or tweak the color of letterboxing to enhance your images further. Study how others use these features for inspiration and to learn new techniques.
Photo Mode is more than a fun addition; it’s a chance for players to connect and express their in-game experiences visually. So grab your camera, explore, and let your creative side shine!
