Gearbox says Borderlands 4’s did not change its date because of GTA 6
As a passionate fan, I’m excited to share some insight from Gearbox Software’s CEO Randy Pitchford regarding Borderlands 4. In a recent social media post, he clarified that the game’s early release is purely based on their confidence in the game’s development progress. He emphasized this by stating that the decision was not influenced by any other product’s launch date, including (though unmentioned) Grand Theft Auto 6, which seems to be one of the “products” he had in mind. With Bungie’s Marathon also announcing a release date for September 23rd, this timing theory has been floating around too.
