BROKEN HEARTS DAY IS BACK!

Score themed loot for your Borderlands 3 Vault Hunters during the Broken Hearts Day seasonal in-game event until February 25.

Broken Hearts Day is back! Mysterious floating hearts are swirling around lovesick enemies across the Borderlands, and aboard Sanctuary III your Saurian pal Maurice—sensing an opportunity to further his studies of our species' courting rituals—needs assistance. As you travel around the galaxy, he'd like you to break any hearts you see by shooting them down. Simple!

Hearts aren't all the same, of course, and during this event there are six distinct ways they can break. Some will fall to the ground with a fiery explosion, while others will drop loot, regenerate your health, or briefly turn nearby enemies into allies. Word has it there are even rare hearts that will spawn groups of ghosts from the Bloody Harvest, affording you an off-season opportunity to score some spooky loot.

Maurice places an equal value on all the various heart types and will keep track of how many you've broken. Obliterate enough hearts, and he'll mail new Broken Hearts Day rewards for your troubles:

10 – "ECHOcardiogram" ECHO Skin
25 – "Cosmic Romance" Weapon Trinket
50 – "Terminal Polyaimorous" Legendary Maliwan SMG
75 – "Heartbreaker" Vault Hunter Skin
100 – "Wedding Invitation" Legendary Jakobs Sniper Rifle

Vault Hunters that helped the sentient Saurian last year will notice that this year’s Broken Hearts Day seasonal event includes recolored ECHO skin, Weapon Trinket, and Vault Hunter Skin cosmetic rewards. It also brings back last year’s Legendary guns— which can only be obtained during this event— at the current level cap of 65.

You have two weeks to assist Maurice before this seasonal event ends at 8:59 AM PT on Thursday, February 25. If you don't want to take part in the Broken Hearts Day event, or at least want to play Borderlands 3 without breaking hearts for a while, you can opt out from the main menu. Note that when you join an online game, the host player's setting will determine whether or not the event is active.

Now get out there and break some baddies' hearts guilt-free—they all had it comin'!
