Tamagotchi Adventure Kingdom promises an epic and nostalgic adventure, while Cornsweeper is a reimagined version of a classic. These are two of the latest additions to Apple Arcade’s extensive catalogue, and are now playable on iPhone, Mac and more.
More are on the way, as are content updates to other popular games in the service.
More games come to Apple Arcade each month
Apple Arcade is a subscription service that, for $6.99 a month, brings unlimited access to over 200 games. There are offerings in almost every genre: casual, racing, RPGs, sports, puzzle, story and many more.
Previously, new games joined the collection almost every week. Starting in December, Apple changed to introducing multiple games at the beginning of each month.
There are three additions to the Arcade in January, and more planned for February.
