Original article: One of 2025's most-anticipated new games, Gearbox Software's latest co-op looter shooter Borderlands 4, has finally launched in many regions on Windows PC, with further arrivals on the platform and on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2 consoles soon to come once the game's launch times all come to pass.
