Gearbox Unveils Borderlands 4 Release Date: September 23, 2025
Gearbox Software, during a recent State of Play presentation, officially announced that Borderlands 4 will launch on September 23, 2025. President Randy Pitchford made the announcement, accompanied by a new trailer showcasing exciting gameplay features.
A standout feature revealed in the trailer is the inclusion of a grappling hook, adding a new dimension to traversal and combat. However, fans can rest assured that the series' signature blend of over-the-top weaponry, explosive action, and chaotic mayhem remains a core element.
To further build anticipation, Gearbox also confirmed a dedicated Borderlands 4 State of Play showcase scheduled for this spring. This upcoming event promises an in-depth look at additional gameplay mechanics and, of course, a plethora of new weaponry.
While plot details remain scarce, hints suggest a potential shift away from the previous game's reliance on "toilet humor," according to comments from the lead writer. Whether Borderlands 4 adopts a more mature tone remains to be seen.
Further information on Borderlands 4's storyline and features will be revealed during the spring's dedicated State of Play. For now, you can find a roundup of all the major announcements from today's PlayStation State of Play elsewhere.
