Take-Two provides update on Borderlands 4 and Nintendo Switch 2
Take-Two Interactive has offered a brief but consequential update on the status of Borderlands 4 for Nintendo Switch 2.
The title, which was expected on the system last year and was highlighted around the time of Nintendo Switch 2’s reveal in April, remains delayed indefinitely on the platform.
In a recent interview with Game File, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick outlined the company’s position on the project and its platform priorities.
Zelnick said a Switch 2 version remains technically feasible but is not currently a focus for Take-Two.
Paraphrasing his remarks: the publisher wants to be present where consumers are, and the company has supported Switch 2 efforts; however, its primary console priorities continue to be Sony and Microsoft.
Zelnick added that Take-Two is addressing platform-specific challenges and will only bring Borderlands 4 to additional systems once the consumer experience is fully resolved.
Key timeline and factual details
- Borderlands 4 was expected on Nintendo Switch 2 last year and featured in coverage around the console’s April reveal. - Take-Two has described the Switch 2 version as "doable," according to Strauss Zelnick’s comments to Game File. - The Switch 2 edition is currently delayed indefinitely, with no confirmed release date. - Reports emerged last month that Nintendo Switch 2 copies of Borderlands 4 had surfaced, but Take-Two’s latest statements indicate the version is not likely to be available soon.
Where this leaves fans and platforms
Take-Two’s remarks make clear that while the technical pathway to a Switch 2 release exists, the company is prioritizing its consumer-readiness checklist and its core platforms on PlayStation and Xbox.
That aligns with broader industry patterns where publishers evaluate new hardware on both technical capability and commercial priority.
Meanwhile, Take-Two’s release slate continues across multiple platforms: the publisher has brought out titles including Civilization 7, WWE 2K25 and WWE 2K26, NBA 2K26, and PGA Tour 2K25.
For Nintendo Switch 2 owners watching for Borderlands 4, Take-Two’s update confirms feasibility but offers no timetable—only that the project will move forward when the publisher is confident it meets consumer expectations.
Nintendo Switch 2 players should monitor official Take-Two and Nintendo channels for any future announcements, but as of the latest comments from Strauss Zelnick, Borderlands 4’s arrival on Switch 2 remains unresolved.
