Where Can I Get More Golden Keys for Borderlands 4?

To obtain the coveted Golden Keys in Borderlands 4, you simply need to input SHiFT codes when prompted during gameplay. By signing into your SHiFT account upon starting the game, you can collect these free rewards provided by Gearbox Software. Once you’ve signed up for a free SHiFT account on your preferred platform, navigate to the Main Menu, select SHiFT, and then move to the Rewards tab to enter your 25-digit code. You can also copy and paste codes directly into the Rewards section on Gearbox’s official SHIFT website. Upon completion, Golden Keys will be added to your account on your chosen platform.

25-digit codes associated with Golden Keys are frequently shared on the social media platforms of Gearbox Software, Randy Pitchford (CEO of Gearbox), and the official Borderlands accounts on platform X (previously known as Twitter).
