Looter FPS Borderlands 4 has received its first trailer, courtesy of Medium Geoff’s Happy Hour and…wait for it. What do you mean by that? three hours? I’m going to die tonight, aren’t I? Well, at least I die doing what I’m ambivalent about. Here’s the trailer for Fourderlands, coming sometime next year.

“Borderlands 4 is a chaotic looter-shooter packed with billions of weapons, outrageous enemies and intense co-op action,” says the Steam page. “Free yourself from a dangerous hidden planet as one of four new tough Vault Hunters.” Oh! Nobody told me they were badass. That changes everything.

You’ll go treasure hunting alone or with up to three other players in co-op mode, and there will also be skill trees and dynamic movement abilities, Steam announces. You’ll collect many, many weapons with “deadly firepower,” which seems like a redundant description. I suppose you might have to say that if non-lethal firepower existed too. There are many weapons. I waive judgment. There will also be “free-form combat and exploration, fast-paced boss fights, infinitely diverse loot drops, and a diverse cast of memorable characters new and old.”

Great. Great. It’s great. I’m sure it’s great. Steam lists the game as “coming soon,” even though the trailer puts it at 2025. Who can you trust in these uncertain times? Well, a little uncertainty makes it exciting. I mean, comparatively speaking anyway.
