Summary
Borderlands 3players are getting free cosmetic items as part of the new update. While the latest entry from the main series has been out since 2019, it has kept its name relevant due to the promotion of the upcomingBorderlandsmovie. Even though the movie doesn’t share the same plot as the games, it does follow characters and settings that are prevalent in the franchise. This includes names which are heavily featured inBorderlands 3. This is also the reason why some fans are refreshing their memories regardingBorderlands' plot and setting as a whole.
Borderlands 3has continually remained active in the gaming community. And while most free content drops involve Shift codes that reward players with Golden Keys, there have been times in the past when said Shift codes would unlock various heads and trinkets for use. However, it looks likeBorderlands 3is getting a large amount of free content as part of its promotion for the upcomingBorderlandsmovie.
According to theBorderlandswebsite,Borderlands 3players will be getting new cosmetics for free. These items will include Vault Hunter heads, skins, trinkets, and others, which are inspired by the manyBorderlandscharactersthroughout the series. As mentioned in the report, all heads and skins will be usable by all Vault Hunters, allowing flexibility for players who wish to cosplay as their favoriteBorderlandscharacter. From the looks of it, many of the free cosmetics were inspired by the fan-favorite Moxxi. Unsurprisingly, with Moxxi being part of theBorderlandsmovie, the choice to promote her makes a lot of sense.
List of Free Cosmetic Items Included in the Update
Gamers have full access to the content drop as part of the latestBorderlands 3update. Once the patch is installed, all players have to do is visit the Quick Change station and the Vault Hunter heads and skins will be available to try and wear. The free cosmetics also includes some ECHO andweapon skins thatBorderlands 3players can useto further customize their equipment.
The developers are hoping that the free cosmetics forBorderlands 3will contribute to thesuccess of theBorderlandsmovie. While it is a small promotion meant to celebrate the upcoming movie, there’s a possibility that the new content will spark interest from both old and new players to revisit the games in the series and see the film too. It has been a while since the last mainline game, and fans are hoping thatBorderlands 4comes out soon so that the franchise can continue telling the stories that fans have followed for the last decade and a half.
