I’m thrilled to share that as a die-hard Borderlands fan, I can’t contain my excitement! Mark your calendars for September 23, 2025, because that’s when the long-awaited Borderlands 4 will officially be released. The creators at 2K have just confirmed this exciting release date in a fresh new trailer, giving us a sneak peek of what’s to come with Borderlands 4.

At the Gamescom event held in August 2024, it was first unveiled that the fourth installment of the Borderlands series was planned for release in the year 2025, as announced by 2K.

The publisher has officially switched the initial release period for Borderlands 4 to a definite launch date, announcing that it will become available on September 23. This information was unveiled in the game’s most recent trailer, which debuted during the February 12 PlayStation State of Play event. The trailer, lasting about a minute, also included fresh gameplay segments, mirroring the mayhem previously teased by 2K in their brief glimpses of the looter shooter genre.

Borderlands 4 Is Getting a Full Gameplay Reveal Soon

2K and Gearbox Software announced that they will unveil a comprehensive sneak peek of Borderlands 4 in spring 2025, providing fans with an early look at the gameplay. Considering the game’s planned release in September, it is expected that this preview will occur during the beginning of the year rather than towards the end—assuming 2K follows a typical marketing cycle for AAA games. To provide context, the full gameplay trailer for Borderlands 3 was released in early May 2019, approximately four and a half months before its market launch.

Regarding its platform availability, Borderlands 4 is slated for a simultaneous launch on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (accessible through both Steam and the Epic Games Store). Given that Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of 2K, has expressed intentions to support the Switch 2, there’s a possibility that it might also be released on Nintendo’s upcoming console. As for the price, no specific figures have been revealed yet, but considering industry trends and 2K’s history, Borderlands 4 may initially cost $69.99 upon release.

The upcoming sequel for “Borderlands 3” is being hyped as the most daring installment yet within the looter shooter series. It will incorporate fresh movement capabilities such as double jumping, dodging, gliding, and even fixed-point grappling. Additionally, it will feature a more complex skill tree system, a subtly altered writing style that may signal a shift away from the franchise’s crude humor, an impressive array of distinctive weapons, and a sprawling semi-open world map.
