Borderlands 3 is just a week away from being released and 2K Games has revealed when exactly you can expect to get your hands on the game. While the game will be released simultaneously in all regions on PC, it will be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at midnight in every region except for PDT where it will be released at 9:00PM alongside EDT’s midnight launch.
No matter which platform you’re playing on, we’re happy to announce that Borderlands 3 will be available for pre-load roughly 48 hours ahead of the launch date and time listed for your region – yes, that includes PC!
If you’re eager to begin your interplanetary journey through the Borderlands 3 galaxy as soon as possible on consoles, just know that outside of North America, the game will launch at midnight local time in every time zone (we call this a “rolling midnight” release). If you happen to be in North America, however, the game will launch at midnight Eastern Time across the whole region – that means 9 p.m. on September 12 if you’re on the west coast.
