Borderlands 4: Free Rafa “Savings Savior” Skin Unlocked via SHiFT Code

Borderlands 4 players can now claim the brand-new Savings Savior skin for Rafa, unlocked after the community smashed the recent YOLT challenge. This freebie gives fans another reason to jump back into the looter-shooter and try out Rafa, one of the game’s newest vault hunters.

SHiFT Rewards Strike Again 🔑

Since Borderlands 2 (2012), Gearbox’s SHiFT rewards program has been the go-to system for unlocking freebies — from golden keys that open valuable loot chests to exclusive character cosmetics. Now, Borderlands 4 continues the tradition with its latest reward: a Rafa skin tied directly to community achievements.

How to Claim the Rafa “Savings Savior” Skin 👕

SHiFT Code: TZXT3-XJXCB-CXBJW-BTTJT-9SK6B

• Redeemable via the in-game SHiFT menu or on the official SHiFT website
• Valid until December 31, 2030
• Requires a linked SHiFT account

The skin was unlocked after players earned a staggering 23.4 million second winds with Rafa between September 26–28 — beating the target by 3.4 million. Inspired by Rafa’s “YOLT” intro video, the outfit features his old employer Tediore’s branding and even includes gritty blood-stained details, reflecting his military past.

Why This Matters for Rafa Fans 💀

The Savings Savior skin not only adds a fresh visual flair but also expands on Rafa’s backstory as an exo-soldier, giving him a darker, more battle-worn identity. For players who usually overlook him, this cosmetic could be the push to explore his playstyle.

What’s Next for Borderlands 4 🚀

Fans are also hyped for the arrival of C4SH, the next vault hunter joining the roster via upcoming DLC. Revealed at the Tokyo Game Show, the Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned story pack is slated for Q1 2026 and marks the first of two planned DLC vault hunters. With new content on the horizon, it’ll be interesting to see how the vault hunter popularity rankings shift once C4SH arrives.
