Apple Arcade has a fairly stacked winter, as the platform is adding some standout titles on December 4. Arcade titles are playable on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Vision Pro.
First up, there’s Cult of the Lamb Arcade Edition. This is a port of the incredibly addictive roguelike/town sim hybrid thingamajig, with some new features exclusive to Arcade subscribers. This version includes new follower forms, decorations and outfits. It also includes all existing content updates, though Apple hasn’t announced if it would be getting forthcoming content updates.
For the uninitiated, Cult of the Lamb is two games in one. There’s a top-down action component and a base builder, with each mechanic interacting in unique and often hilarious ways. Yes, you can feed your cult members poop, if that’s your bag.
The iconic PowerWash Simulator also releases for Apple Arcade next month. This game seems like a great fit for Apple’s service, given the zen-like mechanic of washing down grime. The sequel came out last month for other platforms. If you’re a clean freak, this is the game for you.
Apple is dropping a sequel to SpongeBob Patty Pursuit. The Arcade original SpongeBob Patty Pursuit 2 casts players as both the titular SpongeBob and Plankton in a sidescrolling adventure. The first one was fairly well-reviewed.
Subway Surfers+ and Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm+ will also be available on December 4. Finally, a new Apple Vision Pro game is coming to Arcade this week. Glassbreakers: Champions of Moss will be available on the platform from November 13. This is an AR-based tactics RPG.
