Brilliant Borderlands fan uncovers "the most valuable SHiFT code" for all players after solving a bonkers puzzle — here's how they did it

Borderlands 3 Vault Hunters.

What you need to know

  • Borderlands developer Gearbox Software occasionally makes new SHiFT Codes — codes players can use to get some free quality loot in Borderlands 2, The Pre-Sequel, and 3 — for fans to take advantage.
  • During PAX West, Gearbox handed out special cards that contained a hidden code for "the most valuable SHiFT code" it's ever made.
  • Less than two days later, one brilliant fan cracked the cipher, revealing the code that everyone can now use. It's found in the text below.
  • This particular SHiFT Code gives 50 Golden Keys and 10 Diamond Keys in Borderlands 3, giving players the opportunity to get a ton of Epic and Legendary gear. These keys can also be duplicated infinitely with a glitch (I explain how it works towards the end of the article).
