Say Goodbye To The Borderlands 2 Loot The World App
Way back in December 2013, Gearbox introduced an app that converts QR codes into Borderlands 2 loot. It’s time to say goodbye to Loot the World. You have succeeded. The world has been looted.
The app will rotate out of service tomorrow, October 22. This coincides with extended service on Gearbox’s Shift system in preparation for the Battleborn closed technical test coming up on October 29.
Maintenance will begin on or around 9:30 a.m. Pacific / 12:30 p.m. Eastern. Expect it to last about 12 hours.
As a parting gift, there are two QR codes that will give you “stamps” (the currency that allows you to move loot from the app to the game). We’ve copied them for you below.

Our Take
Perhaps now that we have stopped depleting our precious natural loot resources, the environment can start to heal. Goodbye, Loot The World. You were pretty cool for a while.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
