Gearbox Software has unveiled the official release date for Borderlands 4. During a recent State of Play presentation, Gearbox president Randy Pitchford revealed that the highly anticipated sequel will launch on September 23rd, 2025. To mark the occasion, a new trailer showcasing exciting gameplay features was released.
A standout feature in the trailer is the introduction of a grappling hook, adding a new dimension to traversal and combat. However, fans can rest assured that the signature Borderlands blend of over-the-top weaponry, explosive action, and chaotic mayhem remains a core element.
Further celebrating the announcement, Gearbox announced a dedicated Borderlands 4 State of Play showcase planned for this spring. This special event promises an in-depth look at gameplay and a more extensive display of the game's arsenal.
While narrative details remain scarce, the lead writer previously hinted at a potential shift away from the previous game's reliance on "toilet humor." Whether Borderlands 4 adopts a more mature tone remains to be seen.
More comprehensive information on Borderlands 4 will be revealed during the spring State of Play. In the meantime, you can find a roundup of all the major announcements from the recent PlayStation State of Play.
