Gearbox developers shared the first concept art for Borderlands 4 at PAX West 2024. At the same time, some details about the upcoming game emerged.
We want to make sure the player and the vault hunters are the central characters of our story. We want to make sure the world is reactive, that the world is grounded. That while we keep our humor that brings a lot of people coming back to our franchise, in the game, we want to make sure that it's situational, that it emerges naturally. So while we're building these characters, we're always making sure that they have strong personalities, that they will react differently to different situations, that we see the effects of that.
It is known that the plot of the new game starts immediately after the finale of the third part. It is expected that the world in Borderlands 4 will be more technologically advanced than in previous games of the franchise, and the game itself will become brighter and more diverse.
Borderlands 4 is expected to be released in 2025. The game will be released on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Earlier, the head of Gearbox said that the fourth part will give fans what they want.
