Borderlands 4 is released on Steam, in the Epic Game Store, on PS5 and Xbox Series S|X and the Switch 2. But is the game also available for free on Game Pass?
If you don’t want to buy new games at full price, you can opt for Microsoft’s Game Pass. Borderlands 4 is also not a cheap game at €69.99 on PC and €79.99 on consoles, which is why many players are wondering if the game will be included in Microsoft’s Game Pass.
We will reveal if Borderlands 4 is included in the Game Pass.
Borderlands 4 and the Game Pass
Is Borderlands 4 included in the Game Pass? No, the game has not been released yet, and it will not be included in the Game Pass at launch. If you want to play the game right on release on September 12, 2025, you’ll need to purchase it on your desired platform.
If you’re waiting for the Switch 2 version, you will have to wait until October 3.
If you also want to play online on consoles, you will need to subscribe to a paid service. Everything you need to know about the multiplayer of Borderlands 4 can be found here: Borderlands 4: All about Crossplay, Coop, and Splitscreen
Will Borderlands 4 come to Microsoft’s Game Pass? That is not unlikely. The predecessor, Borderlands 3, is currently included in the Game Pass. However, you should not expect that Borderlands 4 will be added to the subscription service anytime soon. It may take a few years.
If anything changes and Borderlands 4 is added to the Game Pass, we will update the information in the article.
Starting from September 12, 2025 (and October 3, 2025 for Switch 2 players), fans and players can dive into a new Borderlands adventure. If you need more information about the shooter, you can check here: Borderlands 4 is coming in 2025 – All information about release, characters, trailer
