The price is when you use the voucher code "gamingtime" for 20% of the price.
Seems to be a good price for the game on launch day - Epic itself has it for $59.99 US for the Standard Edition.
Should also work with the other editions.
I do not really think any intro is needed for the game.

Enjoy!

Note: Amazon (deal posted by dealbot) has it cheaper for $60 AUD but they are out of stock! Even if they restock today it is likely to go out very quickly again.
Other physical stores close to me such as HN, JB Hifi etc. are also out of stock but maybe your local stores have some stock - you could save a few $ by driving there but of course, then there is the petrol and time - I think the price is $68 AUD (JB) or $60 (HN) in store if you can find stock - see links below by piranha)

  • There are a couple of posts currently that has this for $60.

  • Considering that there have been other prices for PC borderlands 3 that have been advertised on OzB today lower than this…

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/483177 $60 amazon, and links to a Harvey Norman price match deal. Big W for $67 :)

    • Except that it is no good if it is out of stock which it is for PC right now.
      If you can wait, Amazon is the way to go.
      If you want to play tonight and this weekend, maybe somewhere else as Amazon might not be able to restock quickly enough.

      • Hadn't noticed the out of stock since this morning. Chuck that in your description maybe? Saying stock at other bargains might be hard to come by.

    I'll wait for Steam. Decent launch price though.

    • 6 months is a bit of a wait though!

      • Best way to weed out all the bugs and glitches is to have the Epic players deal with them first. Plus I'll have a million golden keys waiting for me by that stage and it'll hopefully be even cheaper too.

    Available cheaper in Aus and doesnt include any fees for foreign exchange.

  • -3

    this is sounding suspiciously more like a referral code than a valid site wide discount.

    • Sure, that is why it is posted elsewhere too (maybe google it if you have nothing better to do). There is a separate one (Claptrap) for Europe too giving 30% off but inly because their base price is higher.
      I have nothing to do with Voidu - absolutely nothing.
      Sorry to disappoint - the conspiracy theory is not valid. ;-)

      Plus: I never said it is site-wide: the code works for BL3 - that is all I know and saw on the net.

    • +3

      In what world does "gamingtime" look like a referral code?

    • @gizmomelb: Here is just one example of where the code is mentioned: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/get-borderlands-3-for-pc-a…

    Amazon and harvey have it for $60 this isn't even a deal

    • +1

      Amazon and Harvey are out of stock though.

  • I reckon this post would be better talking about 20% off Voidu as opposed to specifying BL3. Thanks for the post as Heroes of Might and Magic is something I'm looking for.

    • That wouldn't help people looking for the game this release weekend though, and this is the cheapest key anywhere (in stock).

      • It wasn't at the time of the post.

  • +1

    oh they definitely took my money, but i haven't gotten the product i paid for. i'm putting in a paypal reversal currently, and i'd recommend you go with a reputable seller instead, like cdkeys

    • CDkeys is not an official reseller and not that reputable.
      Before you get upset:

      https://www.reddit.com/r/GameDeals/comments/2yhlw4/key_resel…

      My friends never had an issue with Voidu so far and have used it quite a bit.

      • +3

        Before you get defensive:

        I have never had an issue with cdkeys, nor any other reseller, of which i have interacted with quite a few. I'm just conveying my experience with Voidu today, while trying to purchase the product you have listed. In my perfect scenario I would have gotten my product at a reduced price and be playing it already, but that isn't what happened.

        I have no allegiances either way, I just like getting what I pay for, especially on launch day, and I like to let my fellow ozbargainers know when something they might be considering going ahead with hasn't been roses and rainbows for me.

        However, since my money has been taken but a product not delivered, you could safely say that I am upset and I would argue justifiably so

        caveat emptor

        • Well, you might have just been unlucky and/or not given it enough time. My friends got their codes within minutes so they are happy.

          • @Lysander: I will certainly update this thread when I get a result regarding this purchase. In the interim, you can certainly tell that I have given it a substantial amount of time, based on my post's timestamps. I'm pleased for you that your friends haven't had this experience :+1:

            • @darxtorm: Well, it is very difficult now for them. If you have requested chargeback they cannot send you the key as then you end up with both key and money. You should have talked to them and given them a bit more time.
              The best you will get now is your money back but have to buy the key elsewhere.

              • @Lysander: you're assuming i wasn't taking that channel approach as well, but i can't talk to someone when they have business hours only in the netherlands. now that their office is open i am definitely having a conversation with them. hopefully it will all work out in everyone's favour and i can get my purchase a few hours late and save the hassle of egg on a reseller's face :)

              • @Lysander: It took them 8 hours (6 active support hours) but I got the product I paid for. They asked me more than once to close my (legitimate) paypal dispute before they had delivered. I ended up receiving my code shortly before midnight.

    why the negs ? even if the price is cheaper elsewhere..it isnt actually available.
    $9 more but you dont have to drive to get it, wait for it to be restocked or for a code to posted through the mail.
    if you want it day one this is still 20% off retail value and you can have the game today.
    seems like some people need to think before they neg.

    • -2

      So now we should start calculating petrol costs as well for every deal? What if I ride my bike? Some people really need to know the rules of negs as well…..

      • +1

        who said anything about petrol ? but thanks for adding that in.
        assuming you earn over $20/hr and it takes you 1/2 an hr to get in your car drive to wherever and then drive back (if its actually in stock), then thats an arguement for a waste of your time.
        your only valid reason for the neg is cheaper elsewhere which it isn't if you cant get it from said elsewhere.
        plus the rules dont say you have give it a neg for those reasons and for some people the OP's post was actually useful, unlike your neg.

        • Your post says "you dont have to drive to get it". OP also has mentioned petrol. Have you heard of a telephone? You can also ring an ask to see if its in stock.

          Fact is that it IS cheaper in Harvey Norman. So my neg telling people that they can get it elsewhere FOR CHEAPER (which is exactly what a neg should be used for) is not useful….. righto mate. Didnt realise you have been to every HN and JBhifi store and know stock levels….

          Did you also notice that a couple of users in the thread have NOT received their keys, so they clearly havent "got the game today" as you claim?

          • @Piranha2004: ??? seriously ??? you seem wound a little tight.
            i am not the OP, that wasnt a reply to the OP, so wtf.
            yeah i have heard of a telephone and if you ring your local stores and no stock then maybe this deal was a good option..so wtf ?
            sure it was cheaper at HN by a small amount, with that i agree, no i dont know all HN levels but i do know there were none available at stores anywhere near me and i assume that was the case for a least a few other people.
            i never asked you to remove neg or reported it because yes your right it was within the rules, i just said it wasn't helpful.
            yeah i see that that some peole didn't get the keys instantly, but others did and for them this deal was useful.
            i am not associated with the site and at no point did i guarentee that people would get their keys, so…wtf ???
            and these guys that didn't get their keys obviously thought the deal was worthwile before they had issues, so thanks for pointing that out.

              @rakeem: Im uptight because youre trying to call out people for valid negs. Dont like it? Report and move on. You are not a moderator so stop trying to influence people about their negs.

              • -1

                @Piranha2004: i never said any negs weren't valid.
                i was trying to support the OP who put up a deal that was helpful to many others who couldnt access to the cheaper deals due to stock issues, and was then seemingly attacked for it.
                no im not a moderator, i made a comment in the comments section (which is what a comment section is for?) and then got attacked myself.
                you also are not a moderator. yes there are rules about neg votes which you havent broken. however sometimes rules dont help acheive the aim.
                this was deal that was helpful to some people which is what the whole site is about. you didn't have to cast a neg vote against it, but you did. that and the comments would tend to put people like the OP off ever posting again. so unhelpful.

                so…you cast a neg vote, i made a comment..

                Dont like it? Report and move on.

                seems like good advice, why don't you take it.

                • @rakeem: You claim my neg was unhelpful. How do you know this? Again for,about the fifth time, did you check stock levels at every JB and HN in Australia? Yes, people can get this deal BUT they need to know it is cheaper elsewhere (especially as its local to Austtralia).

                  seems like good advice, why don't you take it.

                  I cant exactly report your comments as they are valid so you can drop the holier than thou act. Clearly im not the only one who did not like this deal as witnessed by the other negs. Anyway, this will be my last response to you.

          • -1

            @Piranha2004: If there is no stock, a cheaper price is no good.
            I can sell you BL3 for $5 but am out of stock - won't be restocking for 12 months if at all. Is that any good to you now?

            Re problems according to you I should slag HB because I have always key issues with them while most people don't. Nah, I dont think so. Flawed argument of yours.

            • +1

              @Lysander: Your justification was that your friends couldnt find any copies at their local HN or JB. Doesnt mean that there may not have been copies in the rest of Australia. Negs are to be used precisely for what I used it (cheaper price). If you have any issues with HB deals you should neg it with your own experience as that is also a valid reason. People are free to use Voidu if they wish (a neg doesnt stop that).

  • Hi guys, does anyone know whether or not there is a region lock on the codes purchased from Voidu? Will we be able to use the codes here in Aus? Thanks!

    • It says ROW (Rest of the World) so yes.

  • just bought, got key instantly

  • -3

    I got this for $48 on preorder. This isn't a deal. In b4 "but this actually has stock!". This is not a deal price.

    • +3

      Can I borrow your time machine, please?
      Bit hard to get the pre-order price today, isn't it?

    • Not sure I follow the logic Adam. :D

  • Just bought a Key using paypal, got it delievered almost instantly. Make sure that your account email for Voidu is the same as your Paypal, they mention that keys might not get delivered if they are different.
    Cost $72.88, downloading on Epic Games Store now.
    Thanks!

    Bought with paypal as well, been waiting about an hour for a key

    • Almost 8 hours now, probably wont be getting it until the end of the weekend. Would have just bought it somewhere else for more if I knew this was going to be the case

      • +1

        It may be worth your while to lodge a dispute with PayPal. I did so after waiting for 4 hours.

        • I'll give them until tomorrow morning, on the off chance that their support is now online and able to do something. I've noticed they've taken the normal edition off their store now though, so I'm not too hopeful

          • @droptester: Interesting. Perhaps they've run out of keys… Didn't stop them taking money.
            Best of luck, I hope you get a positive outcome.

  • +2

    Not recommended

    Purchased two hours ago and have still not received a key. Status is "In Progress".

    • Account e-mail for Voidu same as your paypal email?

      • Yes, I have checked all the options. Voidu just appears to be rubbish.

        • It is probably best to buy between 5pm and 2am in case there are delays. Their opening times. Remember, there are human beings behind every website.

          • @Lysander: Not when it is advertised on the site that the keys can be accessed "in a matter of seconds".
            Not to worry though, I raised a dispute with PayPal and purchased the key elsewhere…

            • @Luci00: Good. The main thing is that you get your game.

  • +1

    Going on 2 hour still no key (In Progress) on their site, yes I used the same email as my Payal account.

    "The activation code is delivered instantly (except Pre-orders). After every successful transaction, you will be able to reach your code in the same page, in a matter of seconds."

    What a bunch of BS!!!

    • +1

      Same here. Not recommended. 5 hours and counting.

      • That is pretty unusual - my friends have never had this issue.
        I have this with HB on a regular basis where I have to contact customer support every time. Takes 1-2 days. But other people don't. Sometimes it seems it is luck of the draw.

        • Just received key for those wondering.

  • Thanks OP
    Took a while for delivery but installed all fine eventually.
    Not too fussed with waiting, I didn't want to play immediately and still cheaper than other digital delivery options.
    Only thing I am unhappy about is that I couldn't buy more than one key, I need 2 more!

  • +1

    Thanks for sharing OP! Not sure why the haters don't get it, but none of those cheaper prices are in stock. Harvey Normal is sold out in every shop. JB-HI is sold out in every shop.

    This was cheapest price today, and thanks for sharing it as an offer for the game rather than the shop, because I wouldn't have found it otherwise.

    The key arrived instantly and it's now downloading. Thanks Lysander! You saved me about $15.

  • Good find OP. If I was free today, I would have used your link to purchase. Let's see next few days whether stocks are up. My friend's level is getting higher and higher!

    It's now USD 50.40

  • How do I download the game after getting the keys?

    edit Download EPIC launcher then after logging in , click your username and redeem code. Paste your code and then click on library and install :)

  • Damn I missed it, its now $63 US
