A brand new free-to-play Borderlands recreation was all of a sudden launched on iPhone right now. It is no surprise you did not realize it was coming.
The sport was quietly revealed right now by cell big Zynga and was developed by NaturalMotion, the British studio that beforehand labored on Star Wars: Hunters.
Borderlands Cellular at the moment exists within the App Retailer as a part of a “restricted time check,” in line with an announcement concerning the recreation despatched to Gematsu. It additionally reveals that Borderlands creator Gearbox was solely concerned in an advisory position.
Borderlands Cellular, described as a free-to-play “epic looter shooter”, is at the moment solely obtainable on iPhone (no Android model but) and solely in the US. I attempted to entry the sport from one other location and bought an error message saying it is not obtainable in that area.
βCreate mayhem your method!β reads the official blurb. “Loot wild weapons and blast your enemies on this cell Borderlands expertise. Be a part of different Vault Hunters in an ever-evolving universe, battle grasping firms, and open legendary vaults. This action-packed looter shooter brings its signature chaos, artwork fashion, and gun-slinging journey to cell for the primary time!
βDiscover legendary loot, energy up your skills and customise the way you play,β the blurb continues. “Use all the things from pistols to rocket launchers to make your enemies want they by no means crossed your path! Grasp the damaging motion gameplay absolutely optimized for cell. Tackle skags, bandits, and managers as you battle by means of quite a lot of thrilling mission varieties, together with Marketing campaign Missions, Tower of Terror, and Circle of Slaughter.”
Little or no else has been introduced concerning the sport right now. There is not any trailer, and curiously Borderlands’ official social media accounts make no point out of its existence in any respect, as an alternative showing to be busy posting about Borderlands 4 updates. It has been a rocky first six months, however the first main DLC has simply been launched and Gearbox is hoping it’s going to be sufficient to carry followers again.
Within the meantime, give Borderlands Cellular a attempt to tell us what you suppose.
