Borderlands 4 Release Date Confirmed

Gearbox has officially announced the much-anticipated release date for Borderlands 4. During the latest State of Play event, Gearbox president Randy Pitchford revealed that fans can mark their calendars for September 23, 2025. To mark this exciting announcement, Gearbox released a new trailer that showcases some of the innovative gameplay features set to debut in the game.

One of the standout features highlighted in the trailer is the introduction of a grappling hook, promising to add a new layer of excitement and strategy to the gameplay. However, fans of the series' signature over-the-top guns, explosions, and chaos will find plenty to love in the new footage as well.

In celebration of the release date announcement, Gearbox has also scheduled a special Borderlands 4-themed State of Play to premiere this spring. This event will offer an in-depth look at new gameplay mechanics and showcase an array of new weapons that players can expect.

While we eagerly await more details on the storyline of Borderlands 4, it's worth noting that the lead writer has hinted at moving away from the heavy reliance on "toilet humor" seen in previous installments. It remains to be seen whether Borderlands 4 will adopt a more serious tone.

Stay tuned for more updates on Borderlands 4 as we approach the special State of Play this spring. In the meantime, you can catch up on all the major announcements from today's PlayStation State of Play [ttpp].
