We’re moving forward and have already reached the midpoint of September, marking the beginning of the final stretch of the year when companies will rush to launch their major projects before entering 2026.

In addition to the big games scheduled for this year, we also get to welcome some lesser-known and lower-budget projects, although the big hitters of the year will take a significant chunk of the pie in the coming months, with Borderlands 4 being one of the prime examples.

Borderlands 4 Makes Its Mark Despite Criticism

This title has finally arrived on PC and current consoles, a launch that has been marred especially on computers, due to performance and optimization issues.

Despite everything, Borderlands 4 has managed to have a very promising start in terms of players, as it has become the best-selling launch in the series on Steam, achieving a peak of over 300,000 concurrent players.

Borderlands 4 has been one of the most anticipated games of 2025, and although it has some optimization issues, it has had a strong start in terms of players, so we can expect upcoming updates to solve these problems, something we’ll be keeping an eye on.
