Borderlands 4’s release date has been pushed up to Sept. 12 from the previously announced date of Sept. 23. One theory says it’s because of Grand Theft Auto 6 — specifically, to give more gamers more time to potentially play Borderlands 4 before they get sucked into GTA 6.

And now a release date change to another 2K Games title, Borderlands 4, has left fans joining up the dots. The first-person shooter was originally due out on 26th September, but has been moved forward to 12th September instead. Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford says it’s all completely unrelated, though.

Pitchford issued this statement on social media after many people said they thought Gearbox shifted Borderlands 4 date forward 11 days to September 12 to give Borderlands 4 more room to breathe before GTA 6 comes out. GTA 6, of course, has no release date, but some are speculating it could launch in October.
