Borderlands 4 Gets Own PlayStation State of Play
PlayStation has officially announced that Borderlands 4 will be the star of its own State of Play today. On April 29, PlayStation took to Twitter (X) to reveal that the Borderlands 4 State of Play is scheduled for April 30 at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET / 10 PM BST / 11 PM CEST. You can catch the stream live on their official YouTube and Twitch channels. Check out the schedule below to see when the stream kicks off in your time zone:
During the live stream, developers from Gearbox Software will delve into the upcoming FPS sequel in the Borderlands series. A PlayStation.blog post from April 29 hints that the State of Play will feature over 20 minutes of "developer-guided gameplay," showcasing missions, deadly weapons, thrilling Action Skills, and both new and familiar characters.
Launch Date Moved to September 12
In a surprising turn of events following the State of Play announcement, Gearbox Entertainment CEO Randy Pitchford shared via a Twitter (X) video on April 29 that Borderlands 4 is set to launch earlier than planned, on September 12. The video was quickly deleted, and Pitchford followed up with another post admitting he shared the news prematurely, promising to repost it soon.
In the video, Pitchford expressed that development is going exceptionally well, stating "everything’s going kinda the best scenario," which has allowed them to move up the launch date. Initially, during PlayStation’s February State of Play, Borderlands 4 was slated for a September 23 release. However, the official Borderlands 4 Twitter (X) account later confirmed the new earlier launch date.
The tweet from the official account reads, "After careful consideration–along with A LOT of meetings, playtestings, and incredible development work–we have made the monumental decision to MOVE UP THE LAUNCH DATE OF BORDERLANDS 4 to SEPTEMBER 12."
Gearbox Software is committed to delivering what they promise to be the greatest Borderlands game to date. With the release now just around the corner, fans can look forward to exploring the new planet of Kairos sooner than anticipated.
Borderlands 4 is slated to launch on September 12, 2025, across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. Stay tuned for more updates by checking out our article below!
