Amazon’s 2025 Black Friday sale is already delivering impressive video game discounts ahead of its official November 20 start date. Shoppers can find standout early offers for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and the Nintendo Switch 2, including a major price cut on the recently released Borderlands 4. Originally priced at seventy dollars at its September launch, Gearbox’s highly anticipated looter-shooter is now available for just forty-eight dollars on both PS5 and Xbox Series X platforms.
It is quite rare to see substantial Black Friday discounts on games that have not even been released. However, Amazon is also providing a significant pre-order discount for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 version of Borderlands 4. While a specific release date for this port has not been announced, customers will not be charged for their pre-order until the game is officially shipped.
The Borderlands series has traditionally centered its action on the planet Pandora, though Borderlands 3 broadened the scope by introducing several additional worlds. Borderlands 4 shifts the setting entirely to the new planet of Kairos, where players are granted the freedom to unleash mayhem while battling the formidable forces of the Timekeeper.
Staying true to the franchise’s roots, the core objective remains selecting one of four distinct Vault Hunters, developing their unique skill trees, and empowering them further by discovering an arsenal of powerful weapons and equipment. This foundational gameplay loop has been a staple since the very first Borderlands title. With Borderlands 4, the developers have refined this successful formula to its peak, incorporating numerous quality-of-life improvements for a smoother experience.
Since the game’s initial release, Gearbox has continued to polish Borderlands 4 through multiple substantial updates, balance adjustments, and regular weekly hotfixes. The studio has also laid out an ambitious roadmap for post-launch content, featuring a mix of free updates and paid expansions. The first major DLC pack is scheduled to arrive on November 20, introducing brand-new missions, formidable enemy types, and legendary gear for players to collect.
Additional endgame content is planned for release near the end of the year. This will challenge players to pit their honed skills and optimized Vault Hunter builds against a notoriously difficult boss known as Bloomreaper the Invincible.
Beyond the Borderlands 4 offer, Amazon’s early Black Friday event includes deals on other upcoming titles. The Pipin’ Hot Collector’s Edition of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is available for pre-order at a twenty-dollar discount across PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox consoles. Unlike the Switch 2 version of Borderlands, this title has a confirmed launch date of December 5.
Nintendo gamers seeking entertainment while they wait for Borderlands 4 can explore Amazon’s current discounts on Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy and Red Dead Redemption. Both of these titles have been reduced to their lowest prices ever. Furthermore, Red Dead Redemption is set to receive a complimentary next-generation update for the Switch 2 on December 2.
