Let’s tell you how to install the Twitch loot extension using the Borderlands 3 ECHOcast livestream. First off, you’ll need to set up a Gearbox Shift account if you haven’t done so already. To do this, head here and click “create new account” to sign up. You can set up an account using your email address, or any of the icons displayed on that page.

You can then link your Twitch and Shift accounts. Head to the “settings” tab on your Shift profile page and click on the Twitch logo. Follow the on-screen instructions to link them together. Alternatively, you can sign in to your Shift profile and link them via the “gaming platforms” tab on the left side of the page. Click the “link” option under the Twitch logo here, and wait for the accounts to be synced.

You should then see version one of the ECHOcast Twitch extension pop up when the livestream begins. There might be a slight delay before it shows up due to the servers needing to connect to your accounts, so don’t worry if it doesn’t show up immediately.

To get free gear using the Borderlands 3 ECHOcast extension, you’ll need to concentrate on the livestream. At some point, the streamer you’re watching might come across a rare chest in-game. These Rare Chest Events give you the best possible chance of earning free loot, so pay attention.

Once a streamer opens a rare chest, you’ll have 30 seconds to opt into the event. After the 30 seconds are up, you’ll be notified if you’ve won the same loot that the streamer picked up during their playthrough. You’ll then have 30 seconds to pick which one item you want to receive.

The item will automatically be added to your Twitch-linked Shift account once chosen. You can collect it from your in-game inbox once Borderlands 3 is released on September 13.
