Borderlands 4 lands as the next mainline entry in Gearbox's looter-shooter series on PS5 and Xbox Series X, sitting in the same space as Destiny-style co-op shooters but with a heavier focus on absurd weapons, big numbers and dark humour. If you've played Borderlands 3 or Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, expect that familiar loop of clearing arenas, grabbing ever-rarer gear and tweaking builds, with current-gen consoles keeping the action smooth when the screen fills with effects and loot drops.
Who is this for?
Best suited to players who enjoy chasing upgrades and experimenting with skill trees rather than tightly paced, story-first campaigns. PEGI 18 is a reminder the tone leans into strong violence and mature humour, so it's not one for younger players.
- PS5 / Xbox Series X versions, current-gen performance and faster loading help keep co-op sessions moving.
- PEGI 18, adult-rated content and language, consistent with the series.
