Borderlands 4 players have the exciting opportunity to acquire the Hazard Pay weapon skin at no cost. To take advantage of this offer, players must sign up for 2K news and promotional messages through their SHIFT account. In addition to the weapon skin, fans will also receive Golden Keys that can be used across multiple titles in the Borderlands series. Recent gameplay reveals have given fans a detailed look at Borderlands 4, showcasing new gameplay elements, Vault Hunters, adversaries, and an array of weapons set to enhance players’ arsenals.
The game features eight main weapon manufacturers, although some familiar brands from previous titles may not return. However, the Licensed Parts system could allow some of these brands to continue in a new form, providing multiple customization options for players. Players have expressed mixed feelings about the updated user interface, particularly after observing changes during the game’s recent State of Play Deep Dive. Like earlier installments, Borderlands 4 will enable players to customize their weapons with a variety of skins.
While many skins will likely be obtainable through gameplay, the Hazard Pay skin stands out as a special reward that requires a bit of extra effort. To unlock the Hazard Pay weapon skin, players should sign into their SHIFT account and navigate to User Preferences. There, they need to check the box to receive news and promotional messages from 2K and its affiliates. Once Borderlands 4 launches, those who have signed up will gain access to the skin as well as Golden Keys, likely including keys specifically for Borderlands 4.
The anticipated launch date for Borderlands 4 has been moved up from September 23 to September 12, allowing fans to immerse themselves in the game sooner. It will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, though details on the Switch 2 version remain pending.
