Borderlands 4 is the most ambitious Borderlands to date, lovingly hand-crafted by the development studio that first forged the looter shooter genre.
2K and Gearbox Software announced that Borderlands 4’s Bounty Pack 2: Legend of the Stone Demon will be available to players on February 26th as the first piece of premium paid content for the title.
This all-new bite-sized-yet-flavorful narrative content delivers players a new mission and Legendary loot to collect, as well as a themed Vault Card featuring 24 cosmetics and 4 rerollable pieces of gear unlocked through gameplay. The full story and more details about Legend of the Stone Demon will be revealed closer to the launch.
Alongside Bounty Pack 2, a major update will be released that marks an exciting addition to Borderlands 4's loot chase with Pearlescent gear—a new rarity tier with power levels superior to even Legendary gear. This new rarity will be available to all players regardless of what edition of Borderlands 4 they own (though certain pieces of Pearlescent gear are exclusive to Bounty Pack 2).
The first Story Pack for Borderlands 4, Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned, will launch in March and introduces multiple main missions and side missions set in a new zone of Kairos, new gear to earn, and heaps of new cosmetics. This Story Pack centers on the return of the indomitable fan-favorite Ellie, and focuses on a cosmic horror theme with a bloodier, darker tone. Players can now wishlist Story Pack 1 on Steam. Stay tuned over the next few weeks as we reveal more details!
Also included in Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned is the first new playable Vault Hunter in Borderlands 4: C4SH. A former casino dealer bot, C4SH is now a drifter who chases the probability-breaking highs of cursed eldritch artifacts. Similar to the other Vault Hunters in Borderlands 4, C4SH has three unique Action Skills to choose from, and can enhance his abilities via three branching skill trees full of powerful passives, Augments, and Capstones.
Players that own Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition are automatically granted access to all of the content from the Bounty Pack Bundle (Bounty Packs 2, 3, 4, and 5) and Vault Hunter Pack (Story Packs 1 and 2), while Borderlands 4 Deluxe Edition grants the Bounty Pack Bundle. Bounty Packs and Story Packs are also available for individual purchase.
The title evolves the series’ gameplay and storytelling in new ways while delivering on the quintessential Borderlands experience fans know and love, including:
- Intense action, badass Vault Hunters, and billions of wild and deadly weapons on an all-new planet ruled by a ruthless tyrant.
- The deepest and most diverse Vault Hunter skill trees of any Borderlands title yet, giving players an unprecedented level of expression through their builds. Paired with the most expansive loot chase yet, players will have all the tools they need to seek out and perfect the build that best matches their style.
- Players will be able to seamlessly travel between zones and become immersed in a more dynamic world featuring events and discoverable side missions that encourage and reward exploration.
- New traversal mechanics add to the exploration for loot and add new dimensions to combat. A vehicle that can be summoned almost anywhere will have players racing across the beautiful vistas of Kairos in style.
- Fight solo or in co-op with up to three other players in this immense sci-fi adventure, packed with free-form combat and exploration, pulse-pounding boss fights, infinitely varied loot drops, and an eclectic cast of unforgettable characters new and old.
Borderlands 4 is available for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam / Epic Games Store) at $69.99, followed by Nintendo Switch 2 at a later time (maybe).
