Cross-Play in Borderlands 4: Play with Friends on Any Platform
To enable cross-play, you’ll need a SHiFT account, which acts as your universal Gearbox ID. Without it, you’ll be restricted to matchmaking with players on your own platform. Beyond just multiplayer access, a SHiFT account unlocks additional perks, including exclusive in-game rewards through redeemable codes. These often pop up during special events or social media promotions, so staying connected pays off.

Borderlands 4 arrives on September 12 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version launching October 3. Whether you’re jumping in solo or with friends, the game’s cross-play support ensures nobody gets left behind in the hunt for loot.
