Where to Find Golden Chests
Unlike previous games, Borderlands 4 features four Golden Chests located in major hubs:
| Location | Access Point |
|---|---|
| The Launchpad | First major hub (early campaign) |
| Belton’s Bore | Belton faction headquarters |
| Carcadia | Carcadia region settlement |
| The Lockaway | High-level endgame area |
Each chest costs 1 Golden Key and scales loot to your current level—perfect for leveling strategies similar to other looter-shooters.

Smart Key Usage Tips
Don’t waste Golden Keys! Save them for after major story beats, when stuck on bosses, or before content updates that raise level caps. Using keys at low levels gives weak gear—patience pays off.
