Dec 13, 2024 2:00 AM

Borderlands 4 has unveiled a new gameplay trailer at The Game Awards 2024, generating excitement among fans. Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford had hinted at the reveal with enthusiastic tweets, expressing his eagerness about the project. The trailer showcases classic Borderlands elements such as vibrant graphics, a menacing new character on spider-like legs, and the trademark chaotic gameplay the series is known for. The release follows the less-than-stellar Borderlands movie, signaling Gearbox's intent to restore the franchise's reputation with this highly anticipated installment.

What can fans expect from Borderlands 4?

Fans can expect more of the hyper-violent, chaotic shooting and dark humor that the series is famous for, alongside intricate character designs, expansive environments, and new gameplay mechanics that continue to build on the franchise's beloved formula.

Borderlands is a critically acclaimed action role-playing game series known for its unique cel-shaded art style and humorous storytelling. The franchise has spanned several titles since its original release in 2009, accumulating a loyal fanbase and expanding into other media, including the aforementioned movie adaptation. As anticipation builds for Borderlands 4, fans will hope for a return to form that can overshadow the franchise's cinematic misadventure.
