2K and Gearbox Software have opened pre-orders for Borderlands 4, with the game set to launch on September 12, 2025. The latest entry in the popular looter-shooter series will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam and Epic Games Store, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version coming later in 2025.
The game introduces four new Vault Hunters, each with unique abilities that work with what the developers call “billions” of weapons. Players will explore Kairos, described as the biggest Borderlands world yet, featuring new ways to get around and fight against the main villain called the Timekeeper and his Order.
Borderlands 4 comes in three different versions. The Standard Edition costs $69.99 and includes just the base game. The Deluxe Edition is priced at $99.99 and adds the Bounty Pack Bundle, which contains four post-launch DLC packs with new areas, missions, and bosses, plus four Vault Cards, new gear, vehicles, and cosmetic items.
The top-tier Super Deluxe Edition costs $129.99 and includes everything from the Deluxe Edition, plus the Vault Hunter Pack with two new Story Packs featuring additional Vault Hunters, story content, and map regions. It also comes with the Ornate Order Pack containing various cosmetic items. All pre-orders include the Gilded Glory Pack with skins for Vault Hunters, weapons, and ECHO-4 Drones.
Post-Launch Content Plans
Gearbox has outlined plans for both free and paid content after launch. The paid DLC will include new Vault Hunters, expanded areas of Kairos, story missions, side quests, challenges, and enemies, though full details haven’t been revealed yet.
The announcement comes after Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford faced criticism for earlier comments about game pricing. When a fan asked him not to price the game at $80, Pitchford initially suggested that “real fans” would find a way to afford higher prices. He later clarified that while development costs are rising, the final price wasn’t set at the time of those comments.
David Ismailer, President of 2K, praised the development team’s work, saying they’ve “raised the bar for Borderlands 4” while keeping the core looter-shooter experience that fans expect. Pitchford called it “the best entry point for new players” and “a heartfelt love letter to fans of the original games.”
