Borderlands Releases SHiFT Code For Free In-Game Keys

Borderlands enthusiasts can now take advantage of a brand-new SHiFT code offering three free Golden or Skeleton Keys per eligible game. As shared via a tweet from Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford on his official X (Twitter) account, players are encouraged to "Good luck, and happy looting!"

The redeemable SHiFT code is: SRFTJ-Z9BR3-3J3TJ-JT3JT-RS6C5
This code remains valid until March 27th at 10 AM EDT / 7 AM PDT and can be entered either in-game or directly on the official Gearbox SHiFT website.

Eligible games include:

⚫︎ Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands

The best part? You can use this same code across all five titles—netting you up to 15 total keys with just one entry.

Borderlands 4 Set for Release This September

While this giveaway may seem spontaneous, it aligns with Gearbox's tradition of rewarding loyal fans—especially as a major new title approaches. Much like past promotions during anniversary events, this SHiFT code drop likely serves as a teaser for the upcoming Borderlands 4, scheduled to launch on September 23rd, 2025.

Set on the uncharted planet of Kairos, Borderlands 4 introduces players to an oppressive regime ruled by the tyrannical Timekeeper. Step into the boots of a Vault Hunter and ignite a rebellion against this ruthless overlord while facing world-altering threats and, of course, billions of wild, unique, and devastating weapons.
