Borderlands 4 players are being treated to another round of free loot, as Gearbox Software has released three new SHiFT codes granting one Golden Key each. Shared by Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford via his official X (formerly Twitter) account, these codes give players access to high-tier loot — but there’s a catch: they expire on October 31, 2025.
Fans of the long-running looter-shooter franchise know that Golden Keys are among the most valuable freebies in the game. When used at a Golden Chest, they reward players with eight pieces of high-quality gear, often ranging from Epic rarity all the way up to Legendary-tier weapons and equipment.
With the Halloween season in full swing, this new batch of codes arrives as the perfect opportunity to beef up your arsenal before diving into the next major Borderlands 4 event.
🗝️ New Borderlands 4 SHiFT Codes (Expire October 31, 2025):
-
J9RTT-KWCK3-CFBB5-BTBT3-FKRB6
-
BHRB3-XCWCJ-WFJTK-JTJJT-FCWF9
-
J9FBT-B55KT-56TJW-3TT3B-JZBSW
Each of these codes grants players one Golden Key upon redemption. Once claimed, they’re automatically added to your in-game cash inventory, which can be found by hovering over the dollar sign icon in the character screen.
To redeem the codes, players can either log into the official SHiFT website using their linked Borderlands account or input the codes directly in-game through the SHiFT tab located on the main menu.
If redeemed before the deadline, you’ll gain three extra Golden Keys to use at any of the Golden Chests across Borderlands 4’s main hubs — perfect for snagging rare loot or upgrading gear before the upcoming How Rush Saved Mercenary Day event in November.

🧨 Gearbox Continues Its Tradition of Player Rewards
Randy Pitchford and the Borderlands team have maintained a long-standing tradition of gifting players SHiFT codes through social media — a tradition that dates all the way back to Borderlands 2. These codes not only keep players engaged but also provide a reason to check back in before each seasonal event or DLC drop.
The release of these new codes aligns with the lead-up to the “How Rush Saved Mercenary Day” Bounty Pack, the first major post-launch update for Borderlands 4, arriving on November 20, 2025. The DLC is expected to introduce new missions, holiday-themed cosmetics, and potentially another wave of SHiFT rewards.
