Borderlands 3 Gets a Release Date

Gearbox Software and 2K announced that Borderlands 3 will be available this September. Which is a great launch window; there aren’t that many titles scheduled to be released during that month. At least, that’s the case right now.

Fans will be able hunt down loot with friends using all new Vault Hunters. We got Moze, a mech summoning gunner, Amara, a new Siren with ethereal fists, FL4K, the beastmaster that can command…um…beasts, and Zane, a stealthy operative that utilizes various gadgets. Each of them has their own special abilities and skills, lending to different gameplay styles. All of them come packing of course…

They’ll visit new worlds, take on insane enemies – lead by the Calypso Twins – and collect a ton of loot. They’ll also experience a new story that involves multiple fan favorite characters, including some from the Telltale spin-off, Tales From the Borderlands.

“For the past several years, the team at Gearbox Software has been devoting every ounce of our passion, creativity and love into making Borderlands 3 the biggest, baddest and most ambitious Borderlands adventure we’ve ever made,” said Gearbox Software President and CEO Randy Pitchford. “Borderlands 3 is being crafted not only as a love letter to fans of the series, but also as an ideal entry point for new players to jump-in alone or cooperatively, on or off-line, in the latest and greatest installment of the definitive best-in-class benchmark shooter-looter.”

We’ll have to wait and see if Randy’s claims are true; players looking to jump back into this crazy franchise will be able to do so on the Xbox One, PS4, and PC come September 13th. Fans looking to snag this title on PC will have to do so via the Epic Games store (it won’t appear on any other digital storefront until April 2020).
