Vault Routing Starts with Region Intel
Borderlands 4 hasn’t published vault coordinates yet, but Gearbox has described each region’s terrain and faction presence. Use the summaries below to orient your future runs.
Region Snapshots
Fadefields
With radiant beaches, whimsical rolling hills, and verdant forests, the Fadefields appear to be a temperate paradise. But under the serene veneer, danger lurks among darkness and long-buried secrets. Idolator Sol rules the Fadefields ruthlessly, controlling food and supplies to appease his beloved Timekeeper.
Carcadia Burn
Pockmarked sandscapes and jagged desert canyons dot the landscape of Carcadia Burn, shattered by a celestial cataclysm. The Rippers siphon resources here to fuel their fight against the Order, while the Electi battle simply to survive between the warring factions.
Terminus Range
The towering peaks of Terminus Range are as unsympathetic as they are cold. Secrets both ancient and man-made hide beneath blinding snowstorms. The Augers mine Ordonite under Vile Lictor's terrifying gaze and cling to warmth inside their carved halls.
Dominion
Dominion City stands as a monument to the Timekeeper's absolute control over Kairos. Beneath its pearlescent promenades, citizens huddle in makeshift dwellings and hope for freedom—or for the Timekeeper to bestow his favor.
Co-op Keeps the Party Together
The campaign is fully scalable for four-player online co-op with instanced loot, level synchronisation, and two-player splitscreen on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Vault instances will scale to your party with instanced loot, so you can share routes with friends without fighting over drops.
