Borderlands 4‘s Switch 2 release has been delayed indefinitely, Gearbox and 2K have today advised.
“We need to share that the release of Borderlands 4 on Nintendo Switch 2 is being delayed,” reads a full statement. “We do not take this decision lightly, but are committed to ensuring we deliver the best possible experience to our fans, and the game needs additional development and polish time to do that.”
The statement side-steps the memory leak that seems to be plaguing currently published versions of the title on PC and consoles, instead focusing on the concept of crosssaves.
“Our hope is to also better align this release with the addition of cross saves, which we are working on and recognize is very important,” the statement continued. “We will update you all on the new release timing once we’ve fully adjusted our plans.”
All digital pre-orders will automatically be refunded; that process will take place from 27 September here in Australia.
“For physical pre-orders, please reach out to the corresponding retailer,” the update advised.
Borderlands 4 is currently available on Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, alongside Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5. It was planned for an early October release on Switch 2.
