How co-op works

Up to four players explore Kairos online with cross-play; PS5 and Xbox Series consoles also support two-player split-screen. Instanced loot, dynamic level scaling, individual difficulty, drop-in sessions, and direct fast travel to teammates let differently progressed Vault Hunters stay together.

About this game

Borderlands 4 drops you onto a dangerous hidden world where billions of procedurally generated guns meet relentless enemies and explosive firefights. You choose one of four new Vault Hunters, each with unique abilities and skill trees, and tear through missions solo or with friends in true co-op chaos. The formula is familiar but refined: empty magazines, collect loot, level up, and repeat in a loop designed to keep teams coming back for better gear.

Combat is fast, loud, and constantly escalating. Coordinate character abilities to shred bosses, revive downed teammates mid-battle, and share the mountain of weapons that spill from every encounter. Communication helps, especially when coordinating crowd control or calling out priority targets, but the real draw is the party-style chaos that erupts when four players unleash their arsenals at once.

Online co-op supports cross-platform multiplayer, so squads can form across different storefronts and systems. Sessions tend to be freeform and social, ideal for groups who enjoy progressing together through story missions, side quests, and endgame challenges where teamwork and firepower scale in tandem.
