Borderlands 4 Boss Hints GTA 6 Rivalry, Says Early Release Has “literally 0%” to Do With Other Games

Borderlands 4 just threw a wrench into everyone’s fall gaming plans, and not in the way anyone expected. The latest move from Gearbox Software has the community hyped, and, naturally, the rumor mill is working overtime.
An early release is usually something to celebrate, but this one comes with a side of suspicion. With GTA 6 looming in the background and Take-Two Interactive pulling the strings for both Gearbox and Rockstar, fans are connecting the dots—whether those lines actually exist or not.
So, what’s really going on behind the curtain? Is this just a case of a studio ahead of schedule, or is there a high-stakes game of calendar Tetris playing out at the top?
Gearbox’s early launch move: confidence or calculated dodge?
When Gearbox announced Borderlands 4 would now ship on September 12 instead of September 23, the news was met with the kind of excitement usually reserved for legendary loot drops.
