Everyone was surprised to see Borderlands 4 appear at this year's Gamescom Opening Night Live. The teaser trailer depicts a planet (Pandora?) under attack from something coming from space, and Randy Pitchford has confirmed that it isn't Handsome Jack like fans initially speculated.
We know that Borderlands 4 will arrive sometime in 2025, but no firm date has been set yet. However, two clues suggest a couple of approximate windows in which it could be released. Take-Two's earnings release confirms that Borderlands 4 will be released sometime during the company's fiscal year 2026, which runs from April 2025 to March 2026. So, we know Borderlands 4 won't arrive before April 2025, but Take-Two's chief executive officer Strauss Zelnick also gave us another hint in an interview with Variety.
"I think it's safe to say that we wouldn't, and no one would, stack up huge releases unnecessarily," Zelnick said. Grand Theft Auto 6 doesn't have a firm release date, but the window Rockstar is aiming for is Fall 2025, which generally means September, October or November. Of course, Rockstar hasn't always been punctual with releases in the past.
Now, we're not sure how soon the two releases have to...
