New SHiFT Code Grants Free Golden and Skeleton Keys in Borderlands Series

The Impact of SHiFT Codes on the Borderlands Community

For a limited time, a new SHiFT code grants players free Golden and Skeleton Keys in multiple Borderlands games, including Borderlands 3. Borderlands creator Randy Pitchford revealed a new SHiFT code that grants free keys in multiple games, including Borderlands 3 and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands. Gearbox Software regularly shares SHiFT codes with the Borderlands community, giving fans a steady flow of weapons that could prove to be useful in end-game content and additional playthroughs.

In Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, those who redeem the new code will receive three Skeleton Keys, which serve the same purpose as Golden Keys. However, the new code won't be active for long, since it will expire on Thursday, January 18 at 10:00 PM CT. Those catching up with the Borderlands series may want to redeem the code as soon as possible to redeem their rewards in multiple games.

Once redeemed, Borderlands fans may use their Golden Keys and Skeleton Keys on a Golden Chest located in the game's main hub, such as Sanctuary in Borderlands 3. The Golden Chest will open with a random assortment of weapons and gear, which spawn with a higher rarity than ordinary world loot drops. These Golden Chest rewards scale with the player's own level, so SHiFT codes offer a great source of powerful loot at any stage of the game.

The Significance of Loot in the Borderlands Series

In the Borderlands series, players will frequently reassess their arsenal during a playthrough, since weapon and gear drops are extremely common. As a player levels up in a Borderlands game, new loot drops may offer more powerful and enticing weapons and gear than before. This loot-focused approach appeals to millions of Borderlands players around the world and defines the 'looter shooter' term that many still use in the latest entry, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands. Although Tiny Tina's Wonderlands brings different gameplay elements to the table, loot continues to be an integral component of character progression.

Golden Chests can offer some of the most unique weapons in the Borderlands series, so players don't have anything to lose by redeeming the latest SHiFT code. This is one aspect of the Borderlands franchise that could continue in Borderlands 4 since the community enjoys long-term support and free loot from Gearbox Software.

Benefits of Redeeming the Latest SHiFT Code

On Twitter, The Gearbox Entertainment Company CEO Randy Pitchford shared a new SHiFT code for fans to redeem in some of the best Borderlands games in the series. By inputting and redeeming the code 9XFTT-RXJBJ-TB3JT-BBB3J-SWX9K, players will receive three Golden Keys in Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and Borderlands 3. In Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, those who redeem the new code will receive three Skeleton Keys, which serve the same purpose as Golden Keys.

The new code expires on Thursday, January 18 at 10:00 PM CT, so those catching up with the Borderlands series may want to redeem the code as soon as possible to redeem their rewards in multiple games. Once redeemed, Borderlands fans may use their Golden Keys and Skeleton Keys on a Golden Chest located in the game's main hub, such as Sanctuary in Borderlands 3. The Golden Chest will open with a random assortment of weapons and gear, which spawn with a higher rarity than ordinary world loot drops. These Golden Chest rewards scale with the player's own level, so SHiFT codes offer a great source of powerful loot at any stage of the game.
