Summary
Borderlands 4fans have the chance to snag a free weapon skin and Golden Keys for “multipleBorderlandstitles.“Borderlands 4fans were recently treated to a deep-dive on the upcoming co-op FPS that gave them their best look yet at gameplay, the new Vault Hunters, the villains, and the weapons that players will be able to add to their arsenals.
Borderlands 4has eight main weapon manufacturersthat players will be able to loot. There are some missing weapon manufacturers from previousBorderlandsgames, but based on the footage, it looks like at least some of them might live on through the Licensed Parts system. Of course, there will be other ways forBorderlands 4players to customize their weapons in the new game.
Like previousBorderlandsgames, fans will be able to customize their weapons inBorderlands 4through weapon skins. While it’s likely that there will be plenty of weapon skins earnable in-game, at least one requires players to jump through some hoops. To get the Hazard Pay weapon skin inBorderlands 4, players need to sign in to theirSHIFT account, and then scroll down to User Preferences. Once there, they need to check the box that says “I would like to receive news and promotional messages from 2K and its affiliates.” Then whenBorderlands 4launches, players will get access to the Hazard Pay weapon skin. Subscribing will also net players Golden Keys for multipleBorderlandsgames. While not specified, chances are good that there will be Golden Keys to redeem forBorderlands 4as well.

For the uninitiated,Borderlandsfans can redeem codes to unlock keysthat get them free loot in the franchise’s various games. These keys have been released forBorderlandsgames for years after the titles are released, so fans can count onBorderlands 4getting a similar level of support. IfBorderlands 4is anything like previous games, it’s likely that DLC expansions are in the cards as well, but right now, the focus is on the base game’s launch.
