Musai Celebrates the Launch of Borderlands 4 with Full Korean Localization

Today marks an incredible milestone for both the gaming community and our team at Musai – Borderlands 4 launches worldwide, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have been part of bringing this mayhem-fueled masterpiece to Korean players in their native language!

 

For the past two years, our talented team at Musai has been working tirelessly behind the scenes on something we couldn’t share with anyone – until now. Under strict NDA, we’ve been pouring our hearts and expertise into every line of dialogue, every joke, every emotional moment, and every explosive one-liner that makes Borderlands what it is. Today, as we stand on the day of launch, we can finally shout from our Studio rooftop: We localized Borderlands 4 into Korean!

 

What makes this project particularly special is the scope of our involvement. We didn’t just translate text – we brought the entire Borderlands 4 experience to life for Korean players through:

 

  • Full Text Localization: Every quest, every item description, every UI element – meticulously translated to preserve the signature Borderlands humor while ensuring it resonates with Korean players

 

  • Complete Voice Over Recording: Korean voice actors breathed life into the new Vault Hunters and the inhabitants of Kairos, matching the energy and personality of the original performances while adding their own unique flair

 

The planet Kairos awaits Korean players with a fully immersive experience that feels as natural in Korean as it does in any other language. From the Timekeeper’s menacing threats to the bandits’ chaotic battle cries, every voice line has been carefully crafted to maintain the game’s distinctive tone.

 

We want to express our deepest gratitude to 2K and Take-Two Interactive for entrusting Musai with this monumental project. Your trust in our team’s ability to handle one of gaming’s most beloved franchises means the world to us. The collaborative spirit throughout the years has been nothing short of extraordinary, and we’re honored to have been your localization partner on this journey to Kairos.

The support from 2K Korea has been particularly touching – our office showcase is now proudly displaying the amazing Borderlands 4 merchandise they sent us! These collectibles serve as a constant reminder of the incredible project we’ve been privileged to work on.

This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without every single member of the Musai team who contributed to this project. From our translators who captured every nuance of the original script, to our Project Managers and Voice directors who guided performances that will make Korean players laugh, cry, and cheer – each of you has left your mark on this game. The late nights, the passionate debates over the perfect adaptation for Borderlands’ unique slang, the countless recording sessions – it all led to this moment.

 

And of course, to our Korean fans. Today, you’ll finally get to experience Borderlands 4 the way it was meant to be experienced – in your language, with voices that speak directly to you. We’ve worked hard to ensure that whether you’re a longtime Vault Hunter or new to the franchise, you’ll feel right at home on Kairos. The humor hits just right, the action feels intense, and every “badass” moment hits you in the bones.

 

As Borderlands 4 launches today with Day One availability in Korean, we’re reminded of why we do what we do at Musai. Gaming is a universal language, but being able to experience these worlds in your native tongue creates a connection that transcends mere translation – it’s about cultural adaptation, emotional resonance, and creating memories that last a lifetime.

 

We can’t wait to see Korean players diving into the chaos starting today, building their perfect Vault Hunter, and discovering all the secrets Kairos has to offer. The post-launch content roadmap looks incredible, and yes – we’ll be there every step of the way to ensure Korean players never miss a beat!

 

To all the Korean gamers out there: September 12th is HERE! Grab your controllers, gather your co-op squad, and jump into an adventure that’s been years in the making.

Borderlands 4 in Korean isn’t just a localization – it’s a labor of love from all of us at Musai.

Thank you again to 2K, Take-Two Interactive, and especially to the Korean gaming community for your patience. The wait is over!

 

카이로스에서 만나요! See you on Kairos!
