PC players can choose to purchase it through Steam or the Epic Store. The developers didn’t say whether they are planning an eventual launch on the Nintendo Switch. But, for the time being, owners of the handheld console will miss out on the action-packed game.
3. Full Gameplay Reveal Date Announced

The launch date trailer is just over a minute long, which means you can barely see all of the mechanics in Borderlands 4. This is why the developers have unveiled plans to host a full gameplay reveal during Spring 2025. With the launch of the title being so soon, Gearbox Entertainment would likely want to tackle this gameplay reveal during the first half of Spring.
