Borderlands 4. It's getting its own special PlayStation State of Play showcase today, and you can watch it here. You know you want to. Randy Pitchford will probably be there, and he's a cool guy. Right? Right?!
While the world waits anxiously for the release of Borderlands 4, one dedicated fan has taken it upon themselves to explore an entry in the series you may not have heard of. Borderlands Online, the cancelled Chinese-only MMOFPS! While the game isn't entirely playable quite yet, good progress has been made.
Following the announcement that Borderlands 4 was having its release date moved forward, and much speculation as to why this was happening, Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has come forward to emphasise that this decision was made entirely due to Borderlands 4's own merits, rather than an attempt to dodge competition from GTA6 or another big competitor.
When is the Borderlands 4 release date? The Borderlands series dates back to 2009, when the first game was released on PC and consoles. Over the last 15 years, the series has become so popular that it was turned into a blockbuster movie in 2024 and, while that might have been met with a rather underwhelming reception, the franchise is set to continue with another videogame entry.
Confirmed during Gamescom Opening Night Live in August 2024, Borderlands 4 is already shaping up to be one of the more exciting action-adventure game releases arriving in 2025. Here's what we know about the Borderlands 4 release date, including when it's set to arrive, what the trailers reveal about the game, and more.

First-person "comedy" shooter Borderlands 4 will be released sooner than previously expected, according to a video accidentally tweeted too early by Randy Pitchford. The original date of September 23rd is being shifted in some sort of bizarre anti-delay. "Everything is going kinda the best case scenario," says the Gearbox CEO, "and so the launch date for Borderlands 4 is changing. We're moving it forward."
