Borderlands 4: Everything we know Take-Two InteractiveBorderlands 4 is finally real. The highly anticipated sequel has been confirmed and it\u2019s coming sooner than you may have expected. From a release window to a look at the first teaser, here\u2019s everything we know thus far. The Borderlands series has no doubt experienced its lowest point in 2024. With the Borderlands movie being a historic flop both critically and at the box office, the future of the franchise as a whole came into question. Quickly waylaying those concerns, however, 2K and Gearbox have finally announced what fans have long been hoping for. Borderlands 4 is indeed real and it\u2019s been in the works for years already. While it\u2019s early days yet and very little has been revealed, it\u2019s not too early to get up to speed on everything we know thus far. From a release window to all the initial leaks, we\u2019ve got you covered. Is there a release date for Borderlands 4? No, there is no set release date for Borderlands 4 just yet, though we do have a release window. Borderlands 4 is confirmed to be a 2025 release, and we can nail it down a bit further than that. In a press release accompanying the announcement, we learned the sequel will arrive during Take-Two\u2019s Fiscal Year 2026. This means Borderlands 4 will arrive sometime after September 28, 2025. Obviously, as it\u2019s still early days yet, it\u2019s worth taking this reveal with a grain of salt. Delays can always occur, not to mention, Take-Two is already planning to release GTA 6 at roughly that time in 2025, meaning Borderlands 4 could be pushed so they don\u2019t directly compete. Gearbox founder Randy Pitchford took to X (formerly Twitter) soon after the reveal to shed further light on the game\u2019s development. Borderlands 4 has been in the works \u201cfor years,\u201d he confirmed. So there\u2019s every chance it\u2019s really not that far off. We\u2019ll be sure to update you here with any further details as we get closer to launch. Borderlands 4 trailers The first teaser for Borderlands 4 dropped at the start of Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024, teasing an upgraded art style as well as what Take-Two has confirmed to be \u201ca new planet.\u201d Borderlands 4 platforms Borderlands 4 is confirmed to be releasing across Xbox Series X | S, PlayStation 5, and PC through both Steam and the Epic Games Store. There\u2019s been no word about support for previous-gen hardware, meaning the game has likely been built from the ground up with the latest tech in mind. What will it be about? While it\u2019s obviously far too early for a proper synopsis, the first press release assured Borderlands 4 is sticking to the same game plan as the first three mainline installments. Fans can expect another round of traditional vault-hunting goodness. \u201cPlayers will once again assume the role of a legendary Vault Hunter as they search for secret alien treasure while blasting everything in sight.\u201d Expanding on goals for the fourth mainline entry during a PAX West 2024 panel, Narrative Director Sam Winkler explained how the team is not only focusing on realizing a \u201cgrounded world\u201d, but that the onus is back on the players. \u201cVault hunters are the central characters of our story.\u201d \u201cFeeling like you\u2019re the one pushing things along and getting things taken care of, instead of being along for a ride\u201d is a big focus for the upcoming sequel, Senior Product Producer Anthony Nicholson added. Who\u2019s developing Borderlands 4? As announced by BusinessWire and Gearbox themselves, we know that Borderlands 4 will be developed by Take-Two Interactive after they joined forces with Gearbox, the original developers of the Borderlands franchise. Take-Two Interactive is best known for its published games, GTA 4, Kerbal Space Program, Bioshock, and much more. All Borderlands 4 rumors and leaks Back in May 2021, rumors of Borderlands 4 hit their peak, with thousands of fans convinced that Gearbox was assisting or co-developing a new Borderlands game. However, the rumor was squashed after Gearbox owner Randy Pitchford posted on X to confirm \u201cthese rumors are NOT accurate. Gearbox is lead dev of any future games in the Borderlands franchise (or any Borderlands adjacent games) with no co-development.\u201d Shortly after, Pitchford shared their job offers, asking to hear from anyone who has \u201cSkills-To-Pay-Bills and wants to get in on some Borderlands action\u201d going on to reveal that they were \u201cworking on the big one,\u201d hinting towards Borderlands 4. Now we know that Take-Two is developing the highly anticipated Borderlands 4 thanks to its acquisition of Gearbox.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
