Dark Horse continue to add to their library of video game artbooks with another for the upcoming 'looter-shooter' Borderlands 4 from Gearbox.
The Art of Borderlands 4 will come in the standard Dark Horse format, a 9" x 12" hardcover book, a good size that always comes with the publishers reliable high quality. This release will have 224 pages and is authored by Rick Barba, who also worked on The Art of Assassin's Creed Shadows from earlier this year. The release date is set for September 30th, with pre-orders going live today.
The artbook will feature a look at the concept art, sketches and renders, as well as the expected insights from the development team. Like previous artbooks for the series, expect this art to cover the new characters, the environments of Kairos, enemies and of course, the weapons of the game.
This was an artbook I had predicted would likely become a reality, as highlighted in my Artbook Predictions for 2025 Video Games. This was based on there being two previous entries for Borderlands, The Art of Borderlands 2Â from BradyGames and the The Art of Borderlands 3Â from Titan Books. Dark Horse stepped into the hectic world of the series with The Art of Tiny Tina's Wonderlands for the spin-off. This is now the second artbook it has worked on with Gearbox and 2K, which will undoubtedly be most welcomed by fans.
Borderlands 4 launches on PS5, Xbox and PC on September 12th, only a small window of time before the artbook, something not often seen in recent years. The FPS series is known for starting the 'looter-shooter' genre, it's over the top characters and insane number of weapons. It began back in 2009 and has since launched 3 mainline games, The Pre-Sequel, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, multiple DLC's across the series and 2 releases from Telltale Games.
Future updates will be reported here, as well as previews and a review when it arrives later this year.
