Fans of Cartoon Network’s Steven Universe can play as their favorite character in Unleash the Light, a role playing game that just launched on Apple Arcade.
Some titles based on TV shows just glue familiar characters onto an unrelated game. Not this one; it features an original story co-written by Rebecca Sugar, the creator Steven Universe. She came up with two Prism-wielding Gems just for the game.
There a 6 playable characters: Steven, Garnet, Pearl, Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli and Bismuth. And the voices are provided by the cast of the show.
Unleash the Light debuted today on Apple’s gaming service. It’s available for download now.
