Borderlands 4 Coming This September
This giveaway might seem unexpected, but it's in line with Gearbox's tradition of releasing free SHiFT codes, often around game anniversaries or in anticipation of new releases. And with Borderlands 4 set to hit the shelves on September 23rd, 2025, this could be their way of stirring up excitement among the fanbase.
Borderlands 4, announced a year ago at Gamescom, promises to deliver an adrenaline-pumping experience with "intense action, badass Vault Hunters, and billions of wild and deadly weapons." Players will explore the new planet Kairos, a location never before seen in the Borderlands universe. However, Kairos is under the iron grip of the Timekeeper, an oppressive and ruthless dictator. Players will ignite a resistance, blasting through enemy forces and striving to avert a world-altering catastrophe.
