The much-anticipated moment for Borderlands enthusiasts is rapidly approaching! Set to drop on September 12th, the latest installment in the popular series, titled “Borderlands 4,” promises a fresh adventure. This new looter-shooter, released six years post the previous version’s launch, introduces new Vault Hunters, a novel world, and an engaging narrative that will captivate players across all major platforms: Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2. While the release date has been disclosed, some fans might be curious about the exact time the game becomes accessible for solo or multiplayer action.
Worldwide, “Borderlands 4” will go live at midnight in your local time zone on September 12th. However, the Nintendo Switch 2 version has a separate launch date on October 3rd. When it arrives, it’s expected to follow a similar global release schedule. Here are the specific worldwide release times for “Borderlands 4”.
| Region | Time | Timezone |
| New Zealand | 12:00 AM | NZST |
| Austrailia | 12:00 AM | AEST |
| Japan | 12:00 AM | JST |
| Singapore | 12:00 AM | SGT |
| United Kingdom | 12:00 AM | BST |
| United States | 9:00 PM / 12:00 AM | PT / ET |
Can You Preload Borderlands 4?
if the preload option is not available, you may need to wait until the game officially launches and then download it directly after its release.
What Is The New Zealand Trick?
By adjusting your console or computer’s time zone to New Zealand Standard Time (NZST), you can effectively download “Borderlands 4” before it’s available in your usual time zone, thanks to the time difference between regions. This practice is often referred to as the “New Zealand trick” or “being a kiwi for a day.” By doing so, your device believes you are in New Zealand and since they receive the game first, you can essentially jump ahead by around 16-18 hours in US time zones, allowing you to start the download early.
