Borderlands®4, the latest entry in the Borderlands franchise, is now available worldwide for PlayStation®5 (PS5®), Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store. The game features four new Vault Hunters, billions of weapons, and new traversal mechanics. Borderlands 4 for Nintendo Switch™ 2 will be available on October 3, 2025. Gearbox founder and president Randy Pitchford said that Borderlands 4 puts the mayhem back into the hands of the fans, who made the game a worldwide phenomenon.

Across the vast and seamlessly connected planet of Kairos, players will face the oppressive Timekeeper. He kept the planet hidden for thousands of years, controlling its inhabitants with cybernetic implants called Bolts and an army of synthetic soldiers known as The Order.

Players will travel across the planet to encounter new and returning characters, creatures, and inhabitants to battle, and unique factions spread across four distinct regions that seek freedom from tyranny. The friends discovered along the way will be recruited by players to their cause. At the same time, enemies will experience first-hand the arsenal of weapons and abilities wielded by the Vault Hunters.

Borderlands 4 is the boldest Borderlands to date, lovingly handcrafted by the development studio that first forged the looter shooter genre. The title evolves the series’ gameplay and storytelling in new ways while delivering on the quintessential Borderlands experience fans know and love, including:

  • Intense action, badass Vault Hunters, and billions of wild and deadly weapons on an all-new planet ruled by a ruthless tyrant;
  • The deepest and most diverse Vault Hunter skill trees of any Borderlands title yet give players unprecedented expression through their builds. Paired with the most expansive loot chase yet, players will have all the tools they need to seek out and perfect the build that best matches their style;
  • Players can seamlessly travel between zones and become immersed in a more dynamic world featuring events and discoverable side missions that encourage and reward exploration;
  • New traversal mechanics add to the exploration for loot and add new dimensions to combat. A Digirunner vehicle that can be summoned almost anywhere will have players racing across the beautiful vistas of Kairos in style;
  • Fight solo or in co-op with up to four players in this immense sci-fi adventure, packed with free-form combat and exploration, pulse-pounding boss fights, infinitely varied loot drops, and an eclectic cast of unforgettable characters, new and old.

Borderlands 4 makes it easier for friends to join co-op multiplayer with a new system for players to form online parties and stay together when switching game modes.* Designed for co-op from the ground up, Borderlands 4 features instanced loot for each player, dynamic level scaling, and individual difficulty to keep the party together and have fun throughout the campaign.

Additionally, players can look forward to a robust roadmap of free and paid post-launch content rolling out following the launch of Borderlands 4. More details can be found on www.borderlands.com.
