We have our first big announcement : The Borderlands is back. Borderlands 4 the next entry in the franchise from Gearbox Software and 2K Games. It will arrive in 2025.
There is no gameplay in the announcement video released today. While that’s a touch disappointing, it’s not surprising with a teaser trailer or release likely to be at least a year away. (And that’s assuming no lag.) But the Borderlands games are known for their polished first-person shooter experience, especially co-op, and their sense of humor. Hopefully both of these characters will return with the new game.
What doesn’t seem to be returning is the cartoonish art style that was the hallmark of the previous three titles. The trailer looks more like it’s promoting a popular science fiction television series than the zany world of Borderlands. But it’s still early days and the studio will be sharing more updates as the game progresses through development.
Gearbox was probably hoping to kick off the announcement by riding a wave of renewed interest in the series after its blockbuster movie adaptation this summer. But since that project was, hopefully the new game will give fans of the series something new to enjoy.
