The new game will let players "seamlessly" travel between explorable zones, and use the "most diverse" skill trees any Vault hunter has had in the franchise. Like previous games, Borderlands 4 will include support for 4-player co-op. It takes place on Kairos, a new planet introduced to the franchise.
"Borderlands 4 is about freedom and being badass," said Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford.
"This is by far the biggest and most insane world we've ever made - it's overloaded with jerkface ratnozzle scrote monsters that need to be put down with the most over-the-top hardcore nuts op guns and loot in any game ever. Oh, and the story also seriously kicks ass!"
Borderlands 4 is the first new game in the franchise in six years, with the previous title being another hit for the studio. Since then, the developer has dabbled in experimenting inside the franchise with games like Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, though fans have been clamoring for a proper return to the series' roots.
Borderlands 4 will be released in 2025 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
