The digital release date for the movie adaptation of Borderlands has been set for August 30, 2024, following its theater debut on August 9. Lionsgate confirmed that the film will be available for purchase on platforms like Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV, priced at $24.99, with rental options at $19.99 for a 48-hour period. The adaptation has sparked mixed reactions, featuring a star-studded cast including Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black, but faced criticism for its execution and a disappointing box office performance of only $24 million against a $115 million budget. Despite the film's struggles, the Borderlands gaming franchise continues, with Borderlands 4 in development and anticipated to provide a more favorable experience for fans.

Will Borderlands the movie be available for streaming?

Yes, the Borderlands movie will be available for streaming on digital platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and others starting August 30, 2024.

Borderlands is based on the popular video game series developed by Gearbox Software, known for its loot-driven gameplay and unique cel-shaded art style. The franchise has garnered a loyal fanbase since its inception in 2009, blending first-person shooter mechanics with RPG elements in a distinct post-apocalyptic world called Pandora. The transition to film has been a significant endeavor, as the franchise aims to capture the essence of its rich narrative and diverse character roster on the big screen.
