Early Success on Steam

The game became one of 2025’s biggest AAA releases. Over 300,000 concurrent Steam players were recorded within two days. Borderlands 4 sales achieved an 83 score on Metacritic, surpassing Borderlands 3 by two points. Gunplay, builds, and humour were widely praised.

Sales Reaching 2.5 Million Units

Reports from GamesIndustry.biz confirmed Borderlands 4 sales has already sold 2.5 million copies. Nearly $150 million in revenue has been generated. Steam sales accounted for 1.3 million units, despite early PC performance issues. Gearbox addressed those problems in a recent update.

Comparing to Borderlands 3

Borderlands 3 sold over five million units within five days of release in 2019. It later reached eight million sales in the same year. A seven-year wait and strong hype were credited with driving that earlier momentum. By contrast, Borderlands 4 faced skepticism due to the weaker reception of Borderlands 3 and the poorly received movie.

Future Growth Expected

Three million sales are expected within weeks. Nintendo Switch 2 will receive Borderlands 4 on October 3, boosting numbers further. Positive reviews and strong word-of-mouth continue to increase momentum.
