The chaos returns! Borderlands 4 launches on September 12, 2025 for PC (Steam & Epic Games Store), PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S. Pre-orders are live, and excitement is through the roof. For Nintendo Switch 2 players, the wait will be a little longer — the game will hit the platform later in 2025, with pre-orders opening October 3, 2025.
The Switch 2 edition won’t be watered down, either. It’s set to include full online co-op, local play, GameChat, and even Joy-Con™ 2 mouse-style functionality for precision aiming. This version is shaping up to be just as feature-rich as its big-console siblings.
