Borderlands 4 Release Date Explained—Start Times & Release Date Confirmed

2025 marks the approaching launch of Borderlands 4, expected to be one of the year’s most anticipated games, and here are the essential details you should know.

Experiencing Borderlands 4 firsthand during Gamescom definitely fueled our anticipation for this upcoming game, having been more than half a decade since its predecessor was released. With an astounding array of 30 billion weapons at your disposal, there’s much to explore and enjoy!

As a dedicated gamer, if you’re eagerly waiting for the big launch that you just can’t miss, maybe even considering a sneaky ‘day off’ from work, I’ve got you covered! Here’s the lowdown on all the crucial release dates and starting times you’ll want to mark in your gaming calendar.

When is Borderlands 4 Coming Out?

On September 12th, I’ll be diving into the post-apocalyptic world of Borderlands 4, available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Unfortunately, Nintendo Switch 2 gamers will have to wait a bit longer, with the release date set for October 3rd.

With the firm release date for Borderlands 4 rapidly approaching, we can expect no further changes to that schedule. Interestingly enough, Gearbox Software has already accelerated the launch of Borderlands 4, and their CEO, Randy Pitchford, has since dismissed speculation suggesting this was in response to Grand Theft Auto 6.

The game’s release date was moved up due to confidence in its development and progress, providing eager fans with an early treat. However, it should be noted that those playing on the Switch 2 will still need to wait a bit more.

Borderlands 4 Start Times

The specific release times for Borderlands 4 haven’t been disclosed yet, however, listings on the PlayStation Store hint that the game might become accessible at midnight in various regions.

In simple terms, both the UK PlayStation Store and the Australian one operate based on their local time zones which include midnight, whereas the US PlayStation Store mentions a midnight release in Eastern Time. It’s not explicitly clear if users from different US time zones will receive access simultaneously with those in Eastern Time.

An early, nighttime launch in certain regions could potentially provide gamers with advanced access by adjusting their time zones, a task more feasible on Xbox Series X|S compared to PlayStation. Yet, it’s uncertain whether this option will be available until the specific launch timings are revealed.

Here’s a more conversational way to present the information:

To make it convenient for everyone, here’s a table displaying the scheduled release times based on various popular time zones. Do take note that these may occasionally adjust; rest assured, we’ll always update you with the latest details.
