Borderlands 4: Insider Secrets Revealed - Get Ready for an Epic Release!

Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box may offer a temporary fix for fans eagerly awaiting Borderlands 4, hinting at a potential release window

Highlights

Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box offers players the most complete Borderlands collection to date, with six full games and all DLC included.

The launch of the Borderlands Collection could imply a lengthier waiting period for Borderlands 4, potentially extending up to four years as per the release pattern of the past games.

As fans continue to speculate about the release of Borderlands 4, the introduction of Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box offers an opportunity to immerse oneself in the series and fuel excitement for the forthcoming installment.

The Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box is a highly anticipated release for fans of the series, offering a comprehensive package of all the main games in the franchise. With the inclusion of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel and both installments of Tales From the Borderlands, as well as all the DLC and add-ons, it is the most extensive Borderlands collection to date. Whether players are returning to the series or experiencing it for the first time, they can look forward to a wealth of gameplay with a total of six full games. However, despite the abundance of content, some may find themselves wondering about the future of Borderlands 4 and how the release of this collection may shed light on its eventual arrival.

Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box Could Hold Fans Over Until Borderlands 4

Pandora's Box is not the first Borderlands collection to be released. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection, released in 2015, beat it to the punch. However, The Handsome Collection was a smaller package, only including Borderlands 2 and The Pre-Sequel. This choice made sense as those two games prominently featured the series' iconic villain, Handsome Jack. It also explains the decision to exclude the first game, which may have been puzzling otherwise. Similar to Pandora's Box, The Handsome Collection provided a way for players to access Borderlands games on the latest console at the time. There may be another similarity shared between the two collections as well.

The Handsome Collection was released three years after Borderlands 2 and three years before Borderlands 3. As the wait for Borderlands 4 continues, there is a possibility that Pandora's Box could serve a similar purpose in keeping the series relevant during the anticipation for a new installment. Following this line of thought, if Borderlands 3 was released four years ago, it could be another four years until the release of Borderlands 4, with Pandora's Box serving as the midpoint between the two. While not definitive proof, it would be a logical tactic to keep fans engaged with the series.

With its abundance of content, Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box is a great option for keeping fans entertained until the release of Borderlands 4. Comprising several lengthy games, the immense size of Pandora's Box ensures that players will have plenty to engage with for a significant period of time. If Gearbox intends to bridge the gap between the two games, it would be hard to find a more effective approach. While it is highly likely that players will be able to complete all the games in the collection before the arrival of Borderlands 4, this would only intensify their anticipation for the upcoming title.

Although there is much speculation surrounding Borderlands 4, its release date remains a complete mystery. Therefore, fans need something to occupy themselves with during the wait, and Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box seems to be the best option that Gearbox currently has for the series. While it does not bring any revolutionary changes to previous games, it does offer players the chance to revisit and enjoy them once again. If Pandora's Box follows the successful path laid out by The Handsome Collection, it is possible that Borderlands 4 may not be released for another four years.

Borderlands Collection: Pandora's Box is available now for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
