Borderlands 4 Global Release Times Revealed

Gearbox has unveiled the complete global rollout schedule for “Borderlands 4”, providing players with specific dates as they eagerly await the arrival of this forthcoming looter shooter game. This list also covers the release times for the Nintendo Switch 2 version of “Borderlands 4”, which is planned to follow shortly after its debut on other platforms.

High anticipation swirls around Borderlands 4. The somewhat underwhelming narrative of Borderlands 3, recognized as falling short of expectations, has sparked optimism for significant improvement. Discussions about a more realistic storyline for Borderlands 4 are promising signs. In just a few days, players will finally experience the complete game and determine if Gearbox has rectified the mistakes from 2019.

Borderlands 4 Release Times Confirmed

In a recent blog post, Gearbox Software shared the global release schedules for Borderlands 4 on various platforms. While Borderlands 4 won’t be available on Nintendo Switch 2 until October 3, release times have been provided even for this platform. Notably, the release times for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S are identical, but there are some intriguing differences for PC (available through Steam and Epic Games Store).

Nintendo Switch 2 PC PlayStation 5 Xbox Series X/S
Wellington, New Zealand (NZST) October 3, 12 AM NZST September 12, 4 AM NZST September 12, 12 AM NZST September 12, 12 AM NZST
Sydney, Australia (AEST) October 3, 12 AM AEST September 12, 2 AM AEST September 12, 12 AM AEST September 12, 12 AM AEST
Tokyo, Japan (JST) October 3, 12 AM JST September 12, 1 AM JST September 12, 12 AM JST September 12, 12 AM JST
Singapore (SGT) October 3, 12 AM SGT September 12, 12 AM SGT September 12, 12 AM SGT September 12, 12 AM SGT

San Francisco, CA, USA (PT) October 2, 9 AM PT September 11, 9 AM PT September 11, 9 PM PT September 11, 9 PM PT

In certain time zones like New Zealand Standard Time (NZST), Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), and Japanese Standard Time (JST), PC gamers will get the new Borderlands 4 game later compared to other users. Conversely, in zones such as British Summer Time (BST), Eastern Time (ET), and Pacific Time (PT), PC players can anticipate playing Borderlands 4 ahead of console players. The reason behind these differences remains unclear, but it’s important for users to take note before the game’s release on September 12.

The journey in Borderlands 4 doesn’t conclude with the game’s launch on September 12th. In fact, Gearbox has unveiled plans for post-launch content and endgame strategies for Borderlands 4, suggesting that this looter shooter will have a prolonged existence past its release date. Given that the primary Borderlands games tend to have substantial gaps between releases, it’s reassuring to know that Gearbox has taken measures to ensure players will continue enjoying Borderlands 4 for several years following its debut.
