Borderlands Mobile Drops on iOS in Surprise Soft Launch

Zynga's NaturalMotion quietly launched a Borderlands Mobile test on iOS, with Gearbox providing creative guidance. The free-to-play title is optimized for mobile, features quick mission loops, events like Circle of Slaughter, and four classes (only The Summoner is live so far). It supports touch controls, has an in-game companion system, and is likely to monetize via microtransactions, though the exact model remains unclear during this soft launch. The move follows Borderlands 4's underperformance and Gearbox pausing a Switch 2 version.

"Iowa Launches Mobile ID App for Convenient Access"

Iowa's new mobile ID app is now available for download for Apple and Android users, although it cannot be used in the real world just yet. The Iowa Department of Transportation is soft-launching the app and plans to formally launch it in the next month. Businesses will need to download a separate app or system to verify the IDs, and users will have to check with businesses or look for the Iowa Mobile ID logo before using the app. The app is considered an acceptable form of ID by the state of Iowa and can be used in situations where a physical ID is required, but users are advised to keep their physical ID as a backup, especially for air travel.

Tinder reveals desire for soft launching partners among youth.

More Gen Z women are opting for a "soft launch" approach to revealing their partners on social media, with one in four 18-34 year-olds gradually sharing their new match online, according to research by Tinder. Internal profile bio data from December 2022 to February 2023 supports the trend, with more Gen Z women having "soft launch" in their bio compared to "hard launch." Women are also more likely than men to wait a few months until they're confident in the relationship to launch their partner on social media.
