Following the cataclysm seen in ours Teaser trailer and the controversial clash of ours First look trailerThe Tirannical Timekeeper is here to warn us while we meet our four new caveau hunters in this trailer for gameplay shots of impulses:

Since Gearbox created the Looter shooter genre almost 16 years ago, we have continued to perfect the formula, offering more booty and action at each entrance. I have worked in every main game of Borderlands since I started as the lead level designer on the original Borderlands and my friend Co-Oop Deep Deep Dive Dive Anthony Nicholson, Senior Project Producer on Borderlands 4, was with the series since Borderlands 2. With Borderlands 4, we really believe this team is really creating the best game, until the date.

This brand new adventure is the perfect entrance point for the new players-e for existing players, you will find the fantastic gameplay you know and Ami who has risen up to 11, with new movement skills, our largest and most bad enemies ever, a new vast planet to explore and, of course, billions of billion guns to be sacked.

Lift the chaos as a caveau hunter

Borderlands Games are set in a ruthless science fiction universe, where life is cheap and the pistols are abundant. Games like a Caveau hunter, a mercenary tough to the hunting sometimes alien, brandishing wild guns and devastating skills. In the Gameplay Deep Dive, we are showing two of our four Caveau hunters: Vex the Siren, who uses the supernatural phase energy to enhance herself and can evoke mortal servants, and Rafa the Exo-Saldier, a former tediore soldier who wears an exo-Sit of Digistrate of an arsenal of weapons. Personally, I am a big fan of the spectral spectral spectral family problems of Vex, who can absolutely make any enemies trying to attack my side during a shooting.

Each Vault Hunter class in Borderlands 4 offers a unique game style that allows you to choose between three signature skills that act as action skills. We are offering our most advanced skill system ever, allowing you to improve your action capacity with special increases and capstone skills. You can choose between three ramification paths of passive skills that allow an incredibly large variety of distinctly powerful builds.

Each Caveau hunter also has a unique trait that model their style of play; For example, the stretch of Vex makes its action skills in tune with the element of the weapon that has currently equipped, encouraging an arsenal of elemental weapons to shock, burn or freeze the enemies based on the situation.

One of our design principles Guide for our Caveau hunters is that playing how they should make you feel an unstoppable force on the battlefield, which triggers action skills to control the combat flow and explode through enemies with an arsenal of outrageous weapons. You can also flex even more expression of skill during the battle with a wide range of new movements, including slipping, agitation, double jump and tip of points.

Welcome to Kairos

In Borderlands 4, we are leaving you in the middle of Kairos, a brand new planet full of factions in war, mortal fauna and desperate inhabitants. For thousands of years, the oppressive chronometrist has kept the planet hidden, checking its inhabitants with cybernetic plants called bolts and an army of synthetic soldiers known as order.

But six years before the events of Borderlands 4, a rogue moon shed suddenly in the orbit of Kairos, shattering the protective veil of the planet and immersing the world in chaos. Now the inhabitants of Kairos have started to get up, with some even to snatch their bolts from their skulls. This is the situation in which our four Caveau hunters have an accident: a planet with a population prepared to explode and you are the spark.

In your research to turn on a revolution against the chronometrist, you will meet unique factions that you will have to recruit in your cause, including a series of new characters and some return faces that will immediately be familiar to Borderlands fans. We are pleased to report favorite characters from fans such as Claptrap, Moxxi and Zane, but we are also so enthusiastic about meeting some of the fascinating disgusting allies and opponents waiting for you on Kairos.

To help you get around the Alcohol and perfectly connected spaces of Kairos, now you can evoke a personalized Digirunner vehicle at will and make a jump to the horizon. We have built a world that exudes the craftsmanship and encourages you to explore it at your pace, with the assistance option provided by your friend Robot Echo-4, how you take new enemies, meet world events and discover hidden treasures.

From the patrols of the orders to the bosses of the world, there is always something to shoot and looting while exploring Kairos. You will also come across short gameplay experiences and new activities that have automatically erased a mission drawn every time you discover them, as silos, which host the technology of old and deactivated orders that you can divert to the crimson resistance with the help of Echo-4.

Once you have recovered a Silo, it will reveal the approximate position of a vaulted key fragment. Collect enough fragments and unlock once hidden: a high -level underground with demanding combat and serious loot. Recovery silos can also be used as fast travel points, or you can zipline of their hacked communications balloon to start slipping through the air towards your next goal.

Wreaking Havoc Across Kairos is Awesome Alone and Even Better with Friends—Which is Why We’ve made it Easier Than Ever To Jump Into Co-Oop Multiplayer, whereher Through 2-Player Splitscreen or via Our Improved Lobby System With Drop-In/Drop-Ouotion Action Action For up to 4 players online, with full crossplay at launch.* Borderlands 4 is designed for co-op from the ground up, with instanced loot for each player, dynamic level scaling, individual difficulty settings and the option to travel quickly directly to other players to keep the party together and have fun during the entire campaign.

Prepare for a struggle

In the new game movie, you can look at us on the offensive through the Terminus range, where one of the generalist generalists, cowardly, has conducted harmful experiments. We are entering his secret black with the help of Amara, an allied siren and former Caveau hunter.

You can also see the destructive power of some mortal weapons of our eight unique producers: order, ripper, Dadalo, Tediore, Maliwan, Jakobs, Vladof and Torue, each boasts their own devastating strengths. Borderlands’s longtime fans will notice that the first three of these producers are brand new, with new characteristics:

• Order pistols focus on precision with high power gusts
• Ripper pistols are up to become completely automatic
• Daedalus guns are easy to use and incorporate more types of ammunition
• The tediore pistols are recharged by launching them like grenades
• Maliwan pistols specialize in elemental damage to burn, freeze and shock
• Jakobs guns can shoot bullets as quickly as possible with rebounds on critical shots
• Vladof pistols have a high rate of fire and huge magazines
• Torue pistols have heavy explosive rounds that can switch to sticky bullets.

With the new system of authorized parts, it is possible to find guns that incorporate the behaviors and skills of the most producers in a single weapon, feeding our unbridled variety of bottles ever. In addition, Borderlands 4 re -elaborates our approach to iconic legendary pistols that have unique effects that you will not find on any other equipment. In Borderlands 3, the legendaries have dropped too often, devaluing them and making other less special bottles heard overall. In our new system, not only all pistols feel great, but now the legendary drops will really be special events.

We have added the magic of return to our chase of the booty and we know that you will love grinding all the great equipment on Kairos. The coveted agricultural equipment is much more intuitive now that you can reproduce entire missions or use Moxxi’s great encore machine to fight the bosses every time you want. Speaking of bosses, Borderlands 4 makes them bigger and better than ever – like cowardly license itself, a monstrosity that you can glimpse at the end of the gameplay Deep Dive. These boss fights will put all your new skills, equipment and skills for the final test, requiring to think quickly and adapt to anything each garment you throw yourself.

There are also new gears slots to further specialize your builds:

• OrdnanceA shared slot for grenades and heavy weapons such as launchers, recharge in a recovery time to keep you stuck and loaded during particularly difficult meetings
• Improvementswhich replace the artifact slot seen in Borderlands 3, increase your weapons based on their manufacturer, rewarding you with extra fire power when optimizing the load of your equipment
• Repkits Add the usefulness allowing you to heal yourself or activate temporary enthusiasts to help turn the tide of an intense battle
