There will be no open world in Borderlands 4. What does Gearbox have in store?

Jan 20,25

Borderlands fans eagerly await the fourth entry in the popular looter-shooter series. Early trailers showcased significant advancements, including scale and exploration options, but it's important to note this isn't a fully open-world game.

Gearbox Software co-founder Randy Pitchford clarified that he avoids calling Borderlands 4 "open world," citing inappropriate connotations for the game's design. While Pitchford didn't detail the specifics, he highlighted a clear distinction between guided gameplay sequences and free-form exploration.

Nevertheless, Borderlands 4 is poised to be the series' largest entry yet. Players will enjoy seamless traversal across all accessible areas without loading screens. To prevent aimless wandering in the expansive game world, developers have focused on crafting a structured and engaging adventure.

While a precise release date remains unannounced, a 2025 launch is anticipated. Borderlands 4 will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
