The same shift code can be redeemed several times, once on each combination of gaming platform.
According to Game Rant's testing, the code in August 2025 can be redeemed several times, once for each supported combination of one Borderland Games and platform. The campaign covers five titles, including the first three numbered items in the franchise, as well as Small Tina's Wonderland and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. With the only exception of Borderlands: Game of the Year EditionThe recently shared code is valid in the Epic Games Store, Steam, Playstation Store and Xbox Store. Borderlands: Goty Edition Supports all these except the Epic Games store, as the game itself is not available on that platform.

Given the Giveaway structure, the code in August 2025 can be redeemed up to 19 times if the player covers each combination of game platform.

When they do Get around to buy them, the keys are still waiting for them. Reports from social media from the fans suggest that some users have encountered technical difficulties in preventing them from redeeming the new shift code. However, these reports seem to be few and far between.
Where to find redeemed golden keys in Borderlands game

In the first two numbered items, the redeemed keys go directly to the player's warehouse and can be used at the Fyreston (B1) or sanctuary (B2) chests.
