Borderlands 4 is set to be added to the packed lineup of 2025 games, and it looks like Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford is already doing his best to get everyone excited, as it appears to tease a “perfect” load, despite not giving more details on that in the slightest.
On Twitter, Pitchford sent out a short but sweet tweet that raises a lot more questions than answers in response to a content creator, JoltzDude139, who is simply enjoying how quickly his PC loads Borderlands 2. “Smooth loading will be a reality sometime day,” they said. write innocentlyprompting Pitchford to intervene. “Perfect, you say?” he mocks.
After being told in no uncertain terms that he “must elaborate” and “can't leave us hanging with a message like that with BL4 on the horizon,” for a moment, it looked like Pitchford was really going to spill the beans. “I'm going to give absolutely more details,” he proclaims. The problem is that that was 16 hours ago and he hasn't tweeted anything since. Apparently enough was enough.
Now, either you've been too distracted or you weren't planning on giving more details right then and there in the first place. To be fair, he didn't say when I would, so I wouldn't be lying even if I continued with it next year. But for the moment we are left without an explanation, or anything concrete to know if it was really referring to Borderlands 4 or not.
There's still a lot we don't know about the next installment – we haven't even seen gameplay footage yet. However, earlier this year, Pitchford told GamesRadar+ that he was “confident that our fans will be very, very happy with the upcoming video game project.” So we hope it can meet expectations in 2025.
Randy Pitchford wasn't the only one making fun of Borderlands 4, because another Gearbox developer basically botched the reveal trailer 2 years ago.
