Confirmed by the official Borderlands Twitter page, which finally gives us a window — if there’s no firm date yet — on when PlayStation players will be able to connect with their friends on other platforms: Spring 2022 .

Players on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One and Xbox Series X will then be able to cross-play.
Have you ever played Little Tina’s Wonderland? Digital Foundry sees it as a “surprising twist on the Borderlands concept”, while Chris sees it as “a bit like working on a hangover”.

Lots of noise. Lots of energy. Requires lots of ibuprofen and coffee to fix.”
