Overview of Upcoming Releases
- Take-Two Interactive has announced that Borderlands 4 will debut after the release of Grand Theft Auto 6.
- With GTA 6 projected for a Fall 2025 launch, Borderlands 4 is likely eyeing an October release at the earliest.
In a recent update, Take-Two Interactive confirmed that Borderlands 4 is set to launch following the highly anticipated release of Grand Theft Auto 6. As excitement builds around this action RPG, fans are left wondering just when they can expect to see Borderlands 4 hit the shelves. Current projections suggest a potential wait until late 2025.
Release Timeline for Borderlands 4
Revealed during the Gamescom Opening Night Live in August 2024, Borderlands 4 will retain the beloved looter shooter gameplay that has defined the series while introducing new mechanics to keep the experience fresh. Set in a distant, post-apocalyptic universe, players can look forward to an unprecedented array of weaponry, with senior project producer Anthony Nicholson hinting at “billions”of possible weapons and items to discover throughout the game. While many fans were hopeful for the return of the character Handsome Jack, the upcoming installment will feature a new antagonist known as The Timekeeper.
In December 2024, Take-Two specified that Borderlands 4 would arrive during the 2026 fiscal year, which spans from April 1, 2025, to March 31, 2026. This announcement has recently been updated by the company (as reported by Comic Book), stating that the game will indeed be released after GTA 6. Considering that GTA 6 is slated for a Fall 2025 debut, it seems plausible that Borderlands 4 could launch in October, with November and December also viable possibilities. However, it is noteworthy that major triple-A titles typically avoid release during December.
Current Development Updates
During their latest quarterly earnings call, Take-Two reiterated that Grand Theft Auto 6 remains on track for a Fall 2025 launch, debunking a recent leak that aimed to shift the release date to September. Initial revelations about GTA 6, made back in 2023, suggest it could be a groundbreaking title in the gaming landscape, with estimated revenue projections of approximately $3.2 billion in its first year.
While anticipation grows for Borderlands 4—the sequel to 2019’s Borderlands 3—Gearbox is gradually revealing more details about this next venture on the planet of Kairos. Players can expect enhanced skill trees, offering greater customization for their characters, alongside new traversal mechanics. Additionally, it appears the game will move away from some of the traditional toilet humor that characterized earlier entries in the series.
