[/p][p][/p][h2]Post-launch content: Story Packs and Bounty Packs[/h2][p]When Borderlands 4 arrives on September 12, 2025, the looter shooter action on Kairos will be just getting started. We have a huge slate of post-launch content planned, including free updates and paid DLC. We're so excited to see your Vault Hunters' adventures continue beyond launch![/p][p][/p][p]The most significant post-launch additions will come in the form of two Story Packs, which are bundled into the Vault Hunter Pack included in Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition. Each Story Pack will add a new playable Vault Hunter, an entirely new region of Kairos with extended narrative content including additional storylines and side missions, and tons of fresh loot and cosmetics to collect. We know that DLC Vault Hunters have been hugely popular with the community in past Borderlands games, so we're stoked to add two more Vault Hunters to Borderlands 4's motley crew after launch.
[/p][p]You can also keep the fun going with four Bounty Packs that feature more tightly-focused content, and are bundled into the Bounty Pack Bundle included in Borderlands 4 Deluxe Edition and Super Deluxe Edition. Each Bounty Pack will feature a new area with fresh missions and a unique boss fight, plenty of new loot and cosmetics to collect, a new type of personalized Digirunner vehicle, and a Vault Card with unique challenges and rewards. We'll share more specifics about how Vault Cards work in Borderlands 4 at a later date, but you can expect they'll work similarly to how they functioned in Borderlands 3: playing the game with a Vault Card active gives you more loot and XP via recurring challenges, which can unlock additional rewards. 
[/p][p]We'll be sharing more details about upcoming Story Packs and Bounty Packs closer to the launch of Borderlands 4, but we want to make sure you know what kind of post-launch content to look forward to when you pre-purchase Borderlands 4 Deluxe Edition or Super Deluxe Edition. And of course, Borderlands 4 will receive plenty of free updates post-launch to incorporate community feedback and further balance the game to maximize the looter shooter fun, and even add some sizable free content drops we can't talk about yet...
