Although the video was quickly deleted, Pitchford followed up with a post explaining the premature release of the information, promising a repost soon.

In the video, Pitchford expressed enthusiasm about the development progress, stating, "everything’s going kinda the best scenario," which led to the decision to advance the release date. Originally set for September 23, as announced in PlayStation's February State of Play, the official Borderlands 4 Twitter (X) account confirmed the new launch date.

The official statement on Twitter (X) read, "After careful consideration–along with A LOT of meetings, playtestings, and incredible development work–we have made the monumental decision to MOVE UP THE LAUNCH DATE OF BORDERLANDS 4 to SEPTEMBER 12."

Gearbox Software is committed to delivering what they promise to be the greatest Borderlands game to date. With the launch date now set earlier than initially planned, fans can look forward to exploring the new planet of Kairos sooner than anticipated.
