Borderlands 4 is getting its own dedicated PlayStation State of Play event today! Discover what to expect from the livestream and the unexpected announcement about its earlier launch date.
PlayStation has officially announced today's special State of Play focusing solely on Borderlands 4. A tweet on April 29 revealed the event will air April 30 at 2 PM PT across PlayStation's official YouTube and Twitch channels. Check your local timing below:
The livestream will feature Gearbox Software developers showcasing over 20 minutes of guided gameplay. As detailed in PlayStation's blog post, viewers will see missions, powerful weapons, new Action Skills, and both fresh and familiar characters.
Following the State of Play announcement, Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford surprised fans by revealing Borderlands 4 would launch two weeks earlier on September 12. Though initially removed, Pitchford confirmed the earlier release was genuine, citing the project's exceptional development progress.
The game was originally slated for September 23 as announced during February's State of Play. Borderlands 4's official Twitter account later confirmed the accelerated timeline, stating: "After extensive evaluation–including countless meetings, playtests, and outstanding development progress–we're thrilled to move Borderlands 4's launch to SEPTEMBER 12."
Gearbox vows this will be the ultimate Borderlands experience. With the earlier launch, players can begin their chaotic adventures on the new planet Kairos sooner than anticipated.
Borderlands 4 arrives September 12, 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. For continuous updates about the game, see our coverage below!
