Borderlands franchise tops 100 million copies sold, Gearbox says
Gearbox Software announced that its Borderlands series has sold more than 100 million copies total since launch, a milestone reached roughly a year after Borderlands 4 debuted on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC in September 2025. The latest game has received a year of post-launch content, including two story packs, five bounty packs, two new vault hunters, and additional features.

Gearbox notes that few franchises outside giants like Mario or Call of Duty reach the 100-million mark, underscoring Borderlands' long-term commercial staying power despite being a niche looter-shooter series. The milestone, paired with continued post-launch support, suggests Gearbox and 2K see sustained value in expanding the franchise rather than treating Borderlands 4 as a one-off release.
- Borderlands has sold over 100 million copies since the series began.
- Borderlands 4 launched in September 2025 and has received a year of add-on content.
