Borderlands 4 might be one of the worst kept secrets in gaming, but it will be unveiled soon according to Gearbox’s Randy Pitchford.

After Gearbox confirmed it was in ‘active development’ on another Borderlands game, and following a leak last year, it’s widely assumed that the studio is working on Borderlands 4.

At this point, the only real question is when it will be announced. A reveal was previously rumoured for both PAX East in March and Summer Game Fest in June, but it didn’t turn up at either.

With the Borderlands movie out on August 9, it’s surprising Borderlands 4 hasn’t been confirmed already – but it seems an unveiling could be around the corner.

Gearbox Software co-founder Randy Pitchford has teased that news on the next Borderlands game will arrive ‘sooner rather than later’, while acknowledging that he hasn’t done a great job in keeping the project a secret.

‘Oh man, I don’t think I’ve done a good enough job of hiding the fact that we’re working on something,’ Pitchford told TheGamer. ‘And I think people that love Borderlands are going to be very excited about what we’re working on.

‘These are fuzzy words, but sooner rather than later, we’re going to be talking about what we’ve been working on, and I can’t wait.’

As for when it could be announced, the most obvious contender is Gamescom, which takes place between August 21-25.

While Geoff Keighley’s Gamescom Opening Night Live isn’t traditionally as big for new game announcements as other events, it does usually have some and with the movie out that month the timing makes sense.

The Borderlands movie is directed by Eli Roth (Hostel) and stars Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, Edgar Ramirez, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Jack Black as the voice of Claptrap. Pitchford has previously said he hopes it will launch a ‘Borderlands Cinematic Universe’.

Borderlands 4 might not be the only Borderlands game in the works at Gearbox, after a leak previously outed the existence of a sequel to spin-off Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. The original game was the second major Borderlands spin-off, following Telltale’s Tales From The Borderlands.

While we know nothing about Borderlands 4, Pitchford has previously described it as the ‘greatest thing we’ve ever done’.
