While the Nintendo Switch 2 disappointed fans with a poor catalog of video games at the time of its release, the coming months are full of surprises. And it's Borderlands 4 that has just made its release date official on this Japanese console, much to the delight of fans.
While the vast majority of games released today are exclusive to this console, the doors seem to be opening for publishers the world over. Gearbox Software's next title, none other than Borderlands 4, will indeed appear on this console. But you'll have to be patient.
Indeed, on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series, it will be possible to play it from September 12, 2025. But if you're a Nintendo gamer, you'll have to wait until October 3, 2025 before diving back into this crazy universe.
Moreover, while the announcement was made on Twitter via the official Borderlands account, there's no information about the form in which the game will be available. In other words, we can expect a dematerialized version with a download code, a full version or a Game-Key Card. Note that cross-play will be available for up to 4 players.
So, all possibilities are mentioned, and no doubt fans' opinions will differ according to their own desires. But following this official announcement, which should delight fans of the license, the studio will communicate on the subject in the days to come. And this could even happen at the next Nintendo Direct, which various people are talking about, and which would showcase this console and the publishers who wish to be present on this platform.
So you'll have to be patient and wait another month if you want to take on the role of a Vault Hunter and lead the resistance against the Timekeeper and his army of disciples on Nintendo Switch 2. And all the while, you'll be uncovering countless secrets and carrying out side quests that will enable you to find extraterrestrial treasures.
