Today we learned a lot more Borderlands 4 During a 20-minute Playstation state of the game, which is only dedicated to the continuation of Gearbox and the upcoming science fiction-loot shooter shooter shooter from 2K.

Announced last year, Borderlands 4 will start on September 12th. This date is announced a little earlier than before and was leaked yesterday from the Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford a few hours before the official messages were unveiled. Pitchford has said since then that the game's release date has nothing to do with other games as Grand Theft Auto 6 or Marathon. Regardless of this, the looter shooter comes out earlier than expected, and so it makes sense that Gearbox wanted to show it via a new Playstation -State of Play of Play.

On April 30th, Sony led a 2- ° minute gameplay dive in Borderlands 4 in which we learned a lot more about the upcoming FPS. Here are 13 important information from the event.


  • Pitchford claims Borderlands 4 Will have a “grounded tone” that returns to the original game.
  • Two of the new vault hunters in the game received names and we learned more about them. Vex is a mighty siren with a ghost tiger that she can stroke and use in combat. Rafa is a former Tediore soldier who uses advanced technology in fighting.
  • Borderlands 4 is on Kairos, a new planet, which was previously referred to by a mysterious extraterrestrial. A few years before the game began, however, a villain moon fell into the planet and caused a lot of chaos. (OG character Lilith could be involved …)
  • The looter shooter will support cross play at the start. You can also play the two-player split screen C0-OP. While playing with others, you can determine your own difficulty and the entire prey will be an instance, so that no weapon steals between friends.
  • In Cairos there are four massive zones that players can freely research without charging screens. In the mission we saw during the demo Borderlands 3 Armata character.
  • You can now glide over large gaps and use your zipline for certain points in exploration or during the fight. Gearbox confirmed that slide, double jump and cut are also back.
  • The players have access to a “Digirunner”, a vehicle that looks very similar to a Spergrow Determination. These are sitting hovercraft in which you can spawn in the world at any time.
  • As you explore Cairos, discover silos. These are places that are not tied to side quests, but rather work more like the types of activities that they have seen in a large open world game as Assassin's Creed.
  • Most arms manufacturers from previous games such as Tediore and Jakobs are back. But this time weapons can emerge with “licensed parts”. A Jakobs rifle may have a different brand of circumference or barrel, which can change, how it fires or the type of damage it does. This makes the already wildly unique prey in which they find Border areas Play even more.
  • Speaking of prey, gearbox has revised Borderlands 3. You can also unlock improvements with which certain weapon brands can become more powerful.
  • Borderlands 4 Will bring repayment missions and boss fights with it, which should make it easier than ever before, to grind for a certain prey.

So yes, we learned a lot about it Borderlands 4! And I look forward to seeing more of the game between now and his (formerly planned) start of September 12th. Borderlands 4 is set to PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC and Switch 2.
