Get ready to lock, load, and loot: Borderlands 4 officially launches worldwide on September 12, 2025, and pre-orders are open starting today! Gearbox Software and 2K are pulling out all the stops for the next big entry in the series that helped define the looter-shooter genre.
Coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store), and hitting the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year, Borderlands 4 is promising the biggest, boldest Vault Hunter experience yet.
