Borderlands 3 VIP codes --- SHiFT 2.0

It looks like Gearbox has made some changes to the SHiFT system, or at least extended it with a thing they’re calling the Vault Insider programme.

Previously they would publish codes that look like game keys that unlock items in the game. Usually you get some amount of Golden Keys, which you can use to unlock a special loot chest in the game that will then drop legendary items at your level.

I grew to dislike the Golden Key mechanic, because it undermined the game’s loot grind.

Anyway… What they’re doing in the lead up to Borderlands 3 is a points system. You earn points by creating a Borderlands.com account and doing various activities. This includes filling out your profile, linking your 2K and Twitch accounts, watching video, and reading news.

You can also earn points using “VIP Codes” — a little bit like the old SHiFT system.

Currently there are two kinds of VIP codes available. VIP Creator Codes (200 points each), and standard VIP codes (100 points each). Creator Codes will only be valid for another day or so (see below).

Points may be redeemed for Golden Keys in the existing Borderlands games, but Gearbox also has a silhouette teaser on the Rewards page to encourage people to save their points to redeem later.

If you don’t have a Borderlands.com account yet, I’ve linked to everywhere in this post using my referral code: Sign up.

I get 500 points for every person that signs up. You can use your existing SHiFT account to log onto the website (that’s what I did). If you don’t want to use my referral code, just strip it out of the URL.

For those who already have an account, here are all the codes published to-date that I’ve found.

Here are the VIP Creator codes (via Reddit). These will apparently only be valid for 48 hours after the gameplay reveal event last night. So you have a day and a bit from the time this post goes live:

  • mitsushowvip
  • kinggothalionvip
  • admiralbahroovip
  • joltzdude139vip
  • soarynvip
  • professorbromanvip
  • dattovip
  • arekkzgamingvip

According to one post on Reddit, you can basically use the name of any of the Borderlands streamers who were at the global AMD reveal event and just add “VIP” to the end of their handles.

Each code is worth 200 points, and you can redeem a maximum of 4 of them.

(Standard) VIP codes

I’ve only found two VIP codes so far. If you find more, please post them in this thread. If you are a forum Regular, you should be able to edit this post. Please feel free to do so.

Normal VIP codes are redeemed in a different place than the VIP Creator Codes. You can either use the drop-down in the main menu, or click the tile on the Activities page.

Record of the Twitter post announcing the WUBWUBWUB VIP code:

Question - how do you send an invite? Cos I cant

You need to wait awhile for your link to generate. It took a few moments on my end and then the screen changed.

It looks like you only get point for up to 25 referrals, so when mine are used up I’ll gladly swap out my link for someone else’s in the OP.

Ok I am assuming its overwhelmed or something cos I cant do much - havent found where to add the codes, just been able to link accounts - or I need to preorder the game and I cant afford that just yet :frowning:

Thanks @SIGSTART.

The VIP code B3REVEAL did not want to work for me though, it says the entry was invalid. Perhaps someone else can also confirm.

Sorry, it’s BL3REVEAL. Updated the OP.

Is that the BL3WELCOME code? Worked for me.

From that main page link (once you’re logged in) click the “View More” button under the Getting Started section.

On the new page, scroll down a bit and you should see the Send Invite link (mine is https://borderlands.com/en-US/vip/?cts=mIanghsJ if anyone wants to use it :slight_smile: ) , and below that in the Activities section is the “Redeem a Code” block which is where I put that code in yesterday.
