July 22: Just a short while ago, 2K and Gearbox shared the release date for Borderlands 4 on Nintendo Switch 2. The game launches on October 3, 2025.

The wait for Borderlands 4 on Nintendo Switch 2 won’t be terribly long compared to other platforms. The initial launch is happening on September 12, so it’s about a month extra.

2K today offered details about gameplay enhancements coming to NBA 2K26 on Gen 9 systems, including Nintendo Switch 2.
