We are only a couple of months out now from Borderlands 4’s September 12th release date, and lively Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has gone ahead and released the game’s map and the locations of over 200 collectibles on a post on his X account.

The collectibles will be scattered across the map and will take some getting to nab them all, with Pitchford saying, “I had challenged Andrew Reiner, who some of you know spent nearly 30 years at Game Informer Magazine, to find those unreachable spots and, well, reach them. The goal was to discover all the places that we never expected players to visit and, well, visit them.”

From there, Borderlands 4 designers were tasked with making these areas look great and then adding collectibles to them, to make it worthwhile for players who took the chance to visit them. We at The Escapist think that is pretty cool.

Pitchford also took the opportunity to show off the map for Borderlands 4, too, a move which angered some fans who accused him of revealing too much of the game before its launch.

Complaints flew in with fans asking why Pitchford had given away the locations of all 200 collectibles months before the game had even been released.

Pitchford replied, “Quit clutching your pearls. Literally all the information will be instantly accessible with simple internet searches. If you want to enjoy the challenge, don’t look at or search for walkthroughs. Also, even with the map you’re looking for needles in haystacks. Good luck!”

Pitchford’s gonna Pitchford. Borderlands 4 is set to be a huge success following on from the incredible games in the lineup previously, but more recently from the shocking movie.
