Borderlands 4 launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on October 3rd; latest videos

Borderlands 4 was among the very first round of third-party games revealed for the Nintendo Switch 2, back in April. It was initially given a vague “2025” release window, but we finally have something more concrete!

Gearbox and Take-Two have announced that the latest entry in the Borderlands series will hit Nintendo’s new console on October 3rd (just a few weeks after other platforms).

Next up, there’s some new videos for the game to check out, with most of them focusing on Vex:
