You don’t have to wait long to dive back into the zany chaos of Borderlands 4 — Gearbox Software and 2K Games just announced the release date has been moved forward by two weeks to September 12, and that Sony will host a State of Play at 2 PM PT tomorrow dedicated entirely to the upcoming game.
According to the social media announcement, the State of Play will air at 2PM PT/5PM ET and feature “over 20 minutes of new weapons, abilities, missions, and more.” Gearbox Software didn’t provide a reason for moving up the release, but it did state that the decision comes after “careful consideration” and “a lot of meetings, playtesting, and incredible development work.”

Fans have suggested the move might be due to the expected release of Grand Theft Auto 6 around that same timeframe. While it doesn’t have an official release date yet, the rumor mill says the expected late fall release of Grand Theft Auto 6 prompted 2K Games to move the launch of Borderlands 4 up to avoid overlapping with what is possibly the most-anticipated game of 2025.

Borderlands 4: release date, trailers, gameplay, and more
If it weren't for the original Borderlands, the looter-shooter genre wouldn't exist as we know it today. This hybrid RPG/first-person shooter from Gearbox not only introduced us to the wild and wacky world of Pandora and Vault Hunters, but also to the addictive loop of grinding for endless amounts of guns. The sequel was even better, perhaps one of the best video games of all time for some, but the third was a mixed bag. It managed to keep people playing thanks to plenty of DLC and being a great cross-platform game for co-op. As a result, Borderlands 4 has been on our list of upcoming PS5 games and upcoming Xbox Series X games for quite a while.
Borderlands 4 would be the next logical place to go, and that's what all the rumors and hints are suggesting. Whether the idea of reuniting with Claptrap fills you with joy or dread, here's everything we know about this upcoming video game.
