Chaos, loot, and a new era of looter-shooter in Kairos
The return of Borderlands 4 has sparked a storm of excitement among fans of the looter shooter, and for good reason.
Gearbox Software and 2K Games have now confirmed that the new installment, previously scheduled for September 23, 2025, will officially arrive in Spain a little earlier, on September 12, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store), although its version for Nintendo Switch 2 is scheduled for October 3, 2025.
I invite you to discover all the new features it will bring and everything you need to know before its launch.
Borderless exploration of a new landscape
Borderlands 4 takes the experience to a new planet, Kairos, with a fluid world, no loading times, and huge explorable areas.
Mobility is enhanced with double jumps, gliding, grappling hooks, and vehicles, providing fast-paced action and freedom of movement for the player.
New cast of Vault Hunters
In this version you can choose between four new Vault Hunters:
- Vex , a siren with elemental damage
- Rafa , an ex-soldier with an exosuit and the ability to manipulate weapons, thanks to the "Licensed Parts" system.
- Amon , the Forge Knight. A warrior, and the sole survivor of a Vault Monster attack.
- Harlowe , The Gravitar. Former Maliwan combat scientist who brings new technology and gadgets to the battlefield.
Deep customization and loot system
Improvements are being made to the looter-shooter system: weapon upgrade slots, a player-instantiated loot system, scalable difficulty in co-op mode, and a massive arsenal of craftable weapons. All improvements are designed to elevate the player experience.
Soundtrack, narrative and emotion in humor
The game's narrative combines the series' signature humor with more emotional touches, especially in surprising moments with Claptrap.
The main antagonist will be the Chronokeeper, and the script strives to generate situational comedy and a deeper story.
High expectations and early reception
The fans have shown great enthusiasm.
The teasers presented at Gamescom 2025 and the team's mentions of how the technology has achieved its ambition raise expectations.
There's talk that this will be the most ambitious installment in the series, and we can assume it's been carefully thought out to please fans as well as attract new ones.
What to expect in September?
On September 12, 2025, the door opens to a new era for the Chamber Hunters in Spain.
Borderlands 4 is all about more loot, more chaos, more exploration, and a refined narrative with emotional moments.
With gameplay innovations, advanced customization, and unprecedented presentation, Gearbox and 2K aim to redefine the looter-shooter genre.
