Borderlands® 4 News

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.

Gearbox Studios and the team behind Borderlands have revealed they will be releasing Borderlands 4 earlier in September than previously reported.

Gearbox Studios has made a very Borderlands-esque announcement today on its X (formerly Twitter) platform in regards to the Borderlands 4 release date. The release date is being moved forward by eleven days (from September 23 to September 12) and could potentially be in connection with Take-Two’s massive GTA6 release, which is scheduled to land within that timespan. Considering Take-Two Interactive owns both Rockstar Games and Gearbox Studios, it’s possible they don’t want to step on themselves with big releases. The post can be seen below courtesy of Gearbox.
