Gearbox Software and 2K today announced that Borderlands 3, the next installment in the critically acclaimed shooter-looter series, will launch worldwide on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC on the Epic Games store September 13, 2019.

Borderlands 3 is a hilarious, story-driven, non-stop galactic thrill-ride, filled with colorful characters, epic enemies and boss fights, and literally billions of guns. In an all-new gameplay trailer released today, Gearbox and 2K show off the game’s unique brand of explosive, irreverent mayhem.

“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 Borderlandsadventure 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.”

The franchise, which combines the exhilarating action of a first-person shooter with the rich progression and loot systems of a role-playing game, has sold-in more than 41 million units worldwide to date. The most popular title in the series – Borderlands 2 – still draws in more than one million unique monthly users more than six years after the game’s initial release in 2012.

“Borderlands is one of the most recognized and celebrated franchises in gaming,” said 2K President David Ismailer. “We’re proud of the work and dedication of our partners at Gearbox, who are making a game that will not only reignite the millions of existing Borderlands fans but welcome a new generation of players into this beloved universe.”

A Mayhem-Fueled Thrill Ride

Blast through new worlds and enemies as one of four brand new Vault Hunters – the ultimate treasure-seeking badasses of the Borderlands, each with deep skill trees, abilities, and customization.

Play solo or join with friends to take on insane enemies, collect bazillions of guns and loads of loot, and save your home from the most ruthless cult leaders in the galaxy – the Calypso Twins.

Butt Stallion weapon skin, weapon trinket, and grenade mod.

Almost worth paying the extra 40 bucks

They need to release more CE's, looking at all the scalpers on ebay makes me sad.

**Fiye** · 2019-04-06 03:57

i was trying to snag a CE on gamestop and either that shit was gone or didn't appear. Had to go through the 2k store and the $20 shipping was painful.

2K's PR team has personally reached out to Byf to create official lore videos. So, Byf made a video on why this isn't practical for him (lack of serious lore and next Destiny expansion is expected around the same time BL3 drops).

It's funny that he brings up that the 2K rep admits to him that he doesn't understand the content Byf creates.

Eh I'll believe it when I see it, which will be when someone uploads it onto YouTube or in 2020.

Either way I hope they do hope he gets some good screen time. I'd love to know what happened to him, Fiona, and everyone else after Tales from the Borderlands.
