Is Borderlands 3 cross-platform?

Yes. The game does indeed support cross-platform play, allowing players to compete against friends irrespective of their gaming platform, be it Xbox, PC, PlayStation, Mac, or even Stadia. This is a significant development, as Borderlands 3 did not originally offer crossplay at its 2019 launch. However, Gearbox, the game's developers, heeded the community's requests and introduced this feature later on.

Despite initial resistance from Sony to cross-platform gameplay, the company eventually gave in, paving the way for cross-generational play. This means players on a PS4 can play Borderlands 3 against someone on a PS5, and the same goes for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S users.

To engage in cross-platform play, players need to ensure they have the latest Crossplay Update, load up Borderlands 3, enable Crossplay via the opt-in window, set a Crossplay Display Name, and then the SHiFT Matchmaking functionality will be activated.

However, it's worth noting that while Borderlands 3 offers robust crossplay options, it currently lacks cross-progression. This means if a player switches from, say, a PlayStation to a PC, they would have to start the game from the beginning.

Borderlands 3: Do I need an account to play it?

Unlike other games that only require a Steam or PSN/Xbox One account to play, Borderlands 3 made a few changes to deviate from the usual “log in and play” situation. In this case, you will need an account to play Borderlands 3. And not just any account, but a SHiFT account. Gearbox Games have partnered with SHiFT not just because of their own volition. The main purpose of having a SHiFT account in the first place is for you to earn points that you can redeem in the game for rewards and all kinds of bonuses. What’s more, there are SHiFT codes that you can redeem as well, which Gearbox Games normally give out on their social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

Are Borderlands 3 Cosmetics bound to account?

Yes. The skins and cosmetics in Borderlands 3 will be bound to your account, and thus can’t be shared. The only way that you can share your stuff with someone is for them to play on your account. Everything tied in with your account such as season passes, deluxe digital bonuses, and more are exclusive to it.

What is a Borderlands 3 VIP account?

VIP stands for Vault Insider Program. If you want to have the best of the best, snagging a VIP account is the best way to go! There are tons of rewards that you can earn simply by joining the VIP. Best of all, it’s completely free! Just by signing up, you’ll automatically get a Borderlands 3 Welcome Pack that has top-tier grenade and shield mods. There’s no need to worry about how you can redeem these as well, as the items will be delivered to your account when you start playing Borderlands 3.

Are there incentives for joining the VIP?

Besides getting awesome rewards, the Vault Insider Program has a lot of activities specially lined up for you should you decide to join (which we recommend you to). From there you can earn points called “VIP Points” which you can use to redeem even more rewards not just for the in-game content, but even outside as well! These include Golden Keys that can be used at previous Borderlands games and desktop wallpapers. How cool is that?

What Are VIP Codes?

In a nutshell, VIP codes are just more ways for you to earn VIP points. You can find VIP codes scattered across the social media platforms of Gearbox or Borderlands’ subreddit. If you want to stay updated whenever they give out these codes, then you’ll have to follow Gearbox in all of their socials and newsletter at their main Borderlands website. You’ll have to be quick about it though, because VIP codes tend to expire after a few days, so use them as quickly as possible.
