Gearbox Software added their famous Golden Skeleton Chest to the Enhanced version of Borderlands Game of the Year Edition (aka a remaster of the Original Borderlands Game). You can redeem the SHiFT Codes that are listed below to obtain Golden Skeleton Keys.
You can redeem these SHiFT Codes in the Game, Official Borderlands Site, or on the SHiFT Site. If done correctly they will show up in your inventory.
You can find the Golden Chest in Fyrestone and use your Golden Keys on it. The chest provides you with high-quality loot with the chance of giving Legendary Loot!
SHiFT Codes are loyalty rewards for the Borderlands community and new codes are added on a frequent basis so check back if you need a new batch of Golden Keys.

Legacy Codes That Work in 2025
Below you will find 13 Borderlands GOTY Shift Codes that never expire
I personally checked all SHiFT Codes in my archive, running back to March 2019. Here are all the codes that still work on Jan 3, 2025. So if you haven’t redeemed them in the past, then you are good to go!
These codes should work on all platforms, however, since the Nintendo Switch version of the game was added later some codes might not be associated with that platform.

How to Redeem Borderlands GOTY Enhanced SHiFT Codes
There are 3 ways you can redeem SHiFT Codes
- In-Game
- SHiFT Website
- Borderlands website
While the Borderlands website itself is pretty popular for redeeming codes due to the VIP Codes. However, the site sometimes has some hiccups. So it’s possible you are not able to redeem a new code or it mentions you don’t have “platform x” linked to your account. If that’s the case try the SHiFT site as it’s more stable but redeeming codes in-game is the safest bet.
There is always the possibility that an individual code gives issues with your account. This could be a one-time thing. If you keep encountering these or some other sort of issues there might be a solution to your problem in the knowledge base or you can submit a ticket.

I couldn’t get the code to work
MentalMars
For now, redeem in-game as the site seems to have some problems redeeming these codes.
SonicHedgehog88
You got to put in the full code in the first box. I hope this helps👍🏻
Mike Hanna
Put the entire code in at the same time.
Jaxx8080
Do you guys know when new codes will be released? How do you watch for them? The first game is by far my favourite and I have beat everything a bazillion times, I just love the shiFt code factor.
Shawn Boyce
The new one gets gold keys right?
Ryan
Says it’s a PSN only code
MentalMars
The July 15 code?
Rae Thompson
There’s no way these codes are for all platforms. I tried all the new ones for Xbox One and it says,”The code you’re trying to activate isn’t associated with a PSN Network account. Try again.” Can you please differentiate the codes to each platform? Thank you.
MentalMars
Redeem ingame or on the shift site, the borderlands site has some hiccups
MentalMars
Redeeming the codes on the Borderlands site has some hiccups. Better try the official SHiFT site (https://shift.gearboxsoftware.com/rewards) or redeem them ingame.
Rae (@Egyptmania)
These codes don’t work for all platforms. Just PSN. Bunch of bs!

Just bought the 3 game pack for Switch today and wanted to start with BL1 but all the shift codes are expired… i dont get why codes even expire.. just make it so once its used it cant be used again by the same player, kind of annoying I cant find one working code
MentalMars
A new batch will be released soonish
Dante
I play on Xbox can I still redeem these codes somewhere?
MentalMars
You can redeem these at https://shift.gearboxsoftware.com/rewards or in-game using the SHiFT Menu
