Borderlands 4 Launches on August 26th

Gearbox Software has revealed the release date for Borderlands 4. During a recent State of Play presentation, Gearbox president Randy Pitchford announced the game's launch on September 23, 2025. To mark the occasion, a new trailer showcasing exciting gameplay features was unveiled.

A standout feature in the trailer is the inclusion of a grappling hook, adding a new dimension to traversal. However, fans can rest assured that the series' signature over-the-top weaponry, explosions, and chaotic gameplay remain central to the experience.

Further celebrating the announcement, Gearbox confirmed a dedicated Borderlands 4 State of Play showcase this spring. This event promises an in-depth look at gameplay and a plethora of new weaponry.

While narrative details remain scarce, the lead writer's previous comments hinting at a potential reduction in "toilet humor" from previous installments have sparked anticipation for a potentially more mature storyline. The upcoming spring State of Play will hopefully shed more light on this aspect.

More comprehensive information on Borderlands 4 will be revealed during the dedicated State of Play presentation this spring. For now, you can find a roundup of all the major announcements from today's PlayStation State of Play elsewhere.
