Borderlands 4 confirmed for September – dedicated State of Play coming in spring
Gearbox turned up for the State of Play stream with a new teaser trailer for their hotly anticipated looter shooter sequel, Borderlands 4. The game is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, and it’s confirmed for launch on 23rd September 2025.
But before we get to that, Gearbox and Sony will partner for a Borderlands 4-only State of Play stream sometime this spring.
Borderlands 4 takes us to the planet Kairos, a world that’s dominated by a ruthless dictator known as the Timekeeper, with an army of synthetic followers known as the Order. You, of course, will play as a Vault Hunter searching for mythical alien treasures in a race against time against the Timekeeper to uncover it.
You’ll know what to expect from Borderlands 4, with the procedurally generated loot pushing you on through each battle and mission, and a humour-filled script that will thankfully tone down the toilet humour of Borderlands 3. We’re yet to really be introduced to the Vault Hunters that will lead this adventure, but the gameplay first look showed an impressive sense of scale and slick snippets of action, and the State of Play this spring is sure to blow the doors off with details and gameplay reveals.
