The Borderlands 4 port for Nintendo Switch 2 may not be dead after all. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has indicated that getting the game onto the platform is technically possible, though no release date has been announced.

The Switch 2 version of the Gearbox-developed shooter was hit with an unexpected delay last September, just a week before it was supposed to launch. Take-Two later confirmed it had paused development on the port earlier this year, and pre-orders for the game were canceled, leaving players wondering if the version had been scrapped entirely.

In a new interview with Game File, Zelnick clarified that the pause is genuinely just a pause. He explained that the delay was not caused by any technical limitation with the Switch 2 hardware. Instead, the team needed to shift focus toward fixing performance problems on the PC version, which had been struggling since the game launched. “It’s doable,” Zelnick said when asked whether the port could still happen.

“We’ve been addressing those challenges, and we want to make sure that we’ve fully addressed Borderlands 4 from a consumer’s point of view before we bring it to more platforms,” he added.

Borderlands 4 launched on PS5, Xbox Series consoles, and PC in September, and has reportedly sold up to 5 million copies across those platforms. Take-Two did show some support for the Switch 2 at launch, releasing versions of Civilization VII, NBA 2K, PGA 2K, and WWE 2K on the platform. However, Zelnick made it clear that the company’s main focus stays elsewhere.

“We want to be wherever the consumer is, and we’ve supported Switch 2,” he told Game File. “You can tell from what we are doing and what we’re not doing that our primary console platforms remain Sony and Microsoft.”
