Buy & Trade Borderlands 3 Accounts - Borderlands3 Marketplace
Borderlands 3 is one of the most entertaining shooters around, packed with tons of action and humor. If you haven’t already, consider getting a Borderlands 3 SHiFT account to fully dive into the mayhem. With so much content to explore, though, it can be a grind. For those wanting to skip straight to the fun, buying a Borderlands 3 account is a great way to save time and jump right into the action.
Is Borderlands 3 cross-platform?
Yes, Borderlands 3 does support cross-platform play, allowing players on different platforms to join games together. Gearbox introduced crossplay for Borderlands 3 across several platforms, including PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Stadia. However, PlayStation consoles were initially excluded from crossplay at launch, although Gearbox later enabled crossplay for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in 2022.
With cross-platform play, players can team up regardless of their platform, making it easier to play co-op with friends. Players need to enable crossplay in the settings and link their SHiFT account to join others on different systems.
Borderlands 3: Do I need an account to play it?
Yes, to play Borderlands 3, you need a basic account depending on your platform:
- PC: You’ll need an Epic Games or Steam account (depending on where you purchased the game) to download and access Borderlands 3.
- Console: For PlayStation or Xbox, you’ll need a PSN or Xbox Live account to download and play the game. Multiplayer features require PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold for online co-op.
- Crossplay: If you want to enable cross-platform play, you’ll also need a SHiFT account (Gearbox’s in-game service), which lets you connect with players across different platforms.
While you can play solo without a SHiFT account, setting one up enhances the experience by allowing crossplay, redeeming in-game rewards, and participating in events.
Are Borderlands 3 Cosmetics bound to account?
Yes, in Borderlands 3, cosmetics are typically bound to your account once obtained. This includes skins, heads, emotes, Echo device skins, and weapon trinkets. Once you unlock these cosmetics, they are tied to your account and can be used across different characters you create on that account.
However, cosmetics cannot be traded or transferred to other players. This means that once you unlock a cosmetic, it remains bound to your account and can’t be given or sold to others. The only way to obtain them is through gameplay, SHiFT codes, or special events on your own account.
