The Borderlands 4 “Gilded Glory Pack” preorder bonus has received an exciting update, now featuring four legendary gear items. Gearbox made this announcement on September 9th, just three days ahead of the game`s highly anticipated launch on September 12th for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. For those eager to secure their copy, two distinct physical editions are available: the Standard Edition, priced at $70, and the more comprehensive Super Deluxe Edition, costing $130. Additionally, the GameStop-exclusive Echo-4 Collector`s Bundle remains an option for $150, which notably includes an Echo-4 statue with LED lights and various other unique collectibles, though it does not bundle the game itself.
Xbox and PC enthusiasts might also find interest in the officially licensed PowerA Special Edition Wireless Controller, which is slated for release on the very same day as the game.
While the standard edition of Borderlands 4 is indeed available for preorder on Switch 2, Nintendo players will experience a slight delay, with their official launch date set for October 3rd.
