Borderlands 4 launches on September 12 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, with a Switch 2 release arriving in October. Gearbox released a live-action trailer encouraging people to leave Earth and go to Kairos, a planet governed by a dictator who uses invasive, behavior-altering technology that risks death if removed. The game was revealed at Gamescom 2024 after months of hints and promises a new world, more loot, and conflicts against sinister forces on Kairos. Four playable Vault Hunters are detailed: science-powered Harlowe, Tediore-advert Rafa, giant Amon, and the Siren Vex. The studio cites Borderlands 3 expansions as inspiration for a grounded sense of humor.
Borderlands 4 is just days away from launching, and to kick off the next era of the looter-shooter, developer Gearbox has released a new live-action trailer urging people to "quit" Earth and head to Kairos. Sure, Kairos is a planet ruled by an all-powerful dictator who enforces his whims on the population with invasive behavior-altering technology that has a high likelihood of killing you if it's removed, but compared to everything else happening right now--*frantically waves arms*--that's not a dealbreaker.
Gearbox first showed off the game--after hinting at it for months-- during the 2024 edition of Gamescom Opening Night Live, teasing a new world for Vault Hunters to explore and even more loot to grab as they fight against the sinister forces in control of Kairos. The last few months have seen Gearbox reveal a substantial number of details about the game, including detailed looks at the four Vault Hunters players will have the option of playing as.
