    The Borderlands community is holding another scavenger hunt in support of St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital, starting November 6 across Borderlands 2, Borderlands 3, and Borderlands 4! The Borderlands Community Fundraising Team raised more than $118,000 in support of St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital back in May, totalling more than $750,000 in charitable donations since The Hunt first began! To help make sure The Hunt does as much good as possible—and to celebrate the Borderlands franchise's recent milestone of 100 million units sold—2K Foundations and Gearbox will also match every dollar donated to The Hunt up to last year’s record amount. That would mean more than $230,000 raised for St. Jude's, so get in there and donate! You can join the community effort and learn more on the BCFT Discord server.

    A message to the entire Borderlands community

    From the recorded announcement

    THANK YOUIt’s hard to believe it’s been just more than 12 months since Borderlands 4 launched and you all first set foot on Kairos. Everything we create has you at its core. You are why we fight. We know how passionate you are about Borderlands, and it’s been a blast to bring you the first year of post-launch content…

    THANK YOUIt’s hard to believe it’s been just more than 12 months since Borderlands 4 launched and you all first set foot on Kairos. Everything we create has you at its core. You are why we fight. We know how passionate you are about Borderlands, and it’s been a blast to bring you the first year of post-launch content for Borderlands 4, including two Story Packs, five Bounty Packs, two new Vault Hunters, and a number of new features and activities. You are why we get up everyday and handcraft the mayhem. Your joy and happiness and surprise and delight - your entertainment - is our purpose, our mission, and the sole reason why we’re here. And you step up in incredible ways. Starting November 6th, Borderlands players will be participating in The Hunt. Earlier this year, this long-standing community fundraising event generated a record-breaking $118,995.80 USD to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in its mission to treat and cure childhood diseases. This time, we have a challenge for you: 2K Foundations, the driving force behind 2K’s social impact, and Gearbox will match every dollar donated to The Hunt up to last year’s record amount, potentially raising more than $230,000 for St. Jude. So get in there and donate! And we've got some other pretty big news: the Borderlands franchise has officially crossed 100 million units sold! There aren't many franchises that have ever hit that milestone, and we certainly didn't get here on our own. For us, it started with that first Borderlands in 2009, and we’ve been excited about everyone who has joined us in the Borderlands…
