As of right now the most likely candidate is Borderlands 4, which was confirmed to be in development earlier this year. It would match up neatly with the release of the Borderlands movie, which will be out on August 9. Borderlands 4 was previously confirmed to be in development and has been heavily teased by Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford.

“Look, we haven’t even announced anything of it,” Pitchford said back in March. “Clearly, we’re working on something. And I know what we’re working on, and holy shit… It’s the greatest thing we’ve ever done. And I can’t wait, but it’s not time yet. It’s not time yet. There will be a time.”

Or maybe it won’t be Borderlands 4 at all.

“It’s gonna be so funny when it’s [NBA 2K25],” one fan joked on X/Twitter.

We’ll know soon enough. In the meantime, Take-Two Interactive has released a host of news surrounding its earnings report, including GTA 5 surpassing 200 million units sold and a narrowed release date for GTA 6.

Summer Game Fest to kick off with its annual show on June 7 at 2pm PT / 5pm ET. It will concide with IGN Live, an in-person fan event featuring games, entertainment, and much more.
