Whats up everybody, and welcome to the week! It’s time as soon as once more for our look again on the noteworthy updates of the final seven days. An odd bunch this week, however one replace I’m particularly enthusiastic about. Effectively, there’s loads right here for all to take pleasure in, even if you happen to don’t play the video games in query. After all, you’ll be able to hold a watch out for updates your self by taking part within the TouchArcade boards. This weekly abstract is simply right here to fill you in on the stuff you may need missed. Let’s go for it!
Subway Surfers Tag,
Subway Surfers turns up in these articles on the common, however it’s far rarer for us to see its Apple Arcade follow-up. Effectively, it simply doesn’t replace that always. This one appears to be extra of a gameplay overhaul than a content material drop, however perhaps that’s wanted. There’s a new mode known as Tag Web site which ought to add some spice to the sport. There’s a brand new capturing mechanic, some new enemies, a reworked wave system, a greater onboarding expertise for brand new gamers, and numerous different enhancements and tweaks. May be value giving it a shot if you happen to bounced off it earlier than simply to see if it goes over higher for you now.
Jetpack Joyride 2,
Talking of Apple Arcade follow-ups to long-running App Retailer hits, right here’s Jetpack Joyride 2. This replace brings a brand new Seaside Getaway occasion the place Barry can catch some rays and benefit from the waves. There are additionally some new missions so as to add some selection to the minute-to-minute gameplay, and a few stability changes, bug fixes, and efficiency enhancements to spherical issues out. Not as instantly thrilling as among the updates for the primary sport, however any new content material is welcome so far as this sequence goes.
Squiggle Drop,
This can be a cute Apple Arcade puzzle sport that’s value giving a attempt if you happen to haven’t already. It provides you a good bit of house to give you your individual puzzle options, and that’s nearly all the time time in my books. This newest model of the sport provides twenty new ranges to play, bringing the whole over 100. So sure, get squiggling. What does ‘squiggle’ imply? “A brief line that curls and loops in an irregular method”? Okay, that is smart. I simply thought it was a personality from Laverne & Shirley. Studying is enjoyable, so is that this sport.
Kimono Cats,
One of many issues about residing in Japan is which you could most likely say you’ve seen an actual cat in a kimono. They don’t care a lot for it, however some individuals actually like to decorate up their pets. Anyway, the cats on this sport don’t appear to thoughts. And also you most likely received’t thoughts this replace, which provides a brand new degree, a brand new NPC stall, a brand new ramen cart driving minigame, some new objects, and a complete lot extra. If you wish to see all the new stuff, you’ll need to go verify by yourself by downloading this sport proper… meow. NO APOLOGIES. NO APOLOGIES EVER.
Pocket Card Jockey: Trip On!,
Okay, I’m beginning to get the rhythm of how the updates for this sport are going to go. New horsies, primarily. However all of us like horsies, so it’s all good. And certainly, that’s precisely what we’ve got right here. A brand new horsie. I’m dragging it out as a result of the identify of a brand new horsie isn’t going to fill a paragraph, and that may break my formatting. We’re wanting good now, so I can reveal that the horsie’s identify is Blazing Child. Will probably be accessible to you within the Loaners tab after you enter the Royal Derby, identical to all of the others. There are additionally a couple of bug fixes in right here, so it isn’t only a horsie. However primarily a horsie. Horsie.
Toon Blast, Free
Time for the compulsory free-to-play matching puzzle sport replace of the week, and I’ve achieved the lazy factor and fallen again on Toon Blast. I used to be checking it and the replace hit just about on the actual time I used to be wanting, which suggests that is piping sizzling information. Spicy, piping sizzling. I hope everybody is happy. I do know I’m. You get fifty new ranges that supposedly contain a Drive-In Theater, which… do the individuals enjoying this even know what that’s? Have they ever seen one of their lives? Like, I’m sufficiently old that if I died in my sleep tonight individuals would simply go “hunh, effectively that occurs” and I barely keep in mind drive-in theaters. Effectively, I suppose it’s not the wildest factor this sport has achieved.
Honkai: Star Rail, Free
Is it time for the primary large post-launch replace for Honkai Star Rail? Seems to be prefer it! I do marvel if this sport is hitting the identical method Genshin Influence did. It’s onerous to inform at this level, however it’s not less than not flopping like a Magikarp that’s being tremendously underestimated by an absolute idiot. Proper, the replace. Three new characters: Silver Wolf, Luocha, and Yukong. Three new Gentle Cones. A brand new map, taking you to the Historical past and Tradition Museum. And naturally some new tales and occasions to take you to and thru all of that stuff I simply talked about. Not unhealthy in any respect.
Bloons TD 6, $6.99
Oh, this can be a neat one. Bloons TD 6 is celebrating an anniversary of some kind. That is, due to this fact, its anniversary replace. That makes it a particular one, and it certain appears that method. We’ve bought a Wizard Monkey Paragon known as Magus Perfectus, a brand new Sauda pores and skin to make them appear to be a Jiangshi, a bunch of recent Quests together with a Birthday one that may provide up a particular anniversary banner, and a brand new Superior map to problem. There are different issues right here, however these are the details. There was a follow-up replace a few days in the past that fastened a bunch of bugs this one launched, so leap in with out worry. Most likely.
Marvel Contest of Champions, Free
I’m going to say this a lot for Contest of Champions: its longevity and replace frequency means it’s going into the weeds in a method no different Marvel fighter ever has or seemingly ever will. For instance, it’s certain wanting like Woman Deathstrike and Dani Moonstar are becoming a member of the roster. Think about leaping again into the previous and telling somebody Dani Moonstar goes to be in a Marvel preventing sport sooner or later. I’m joyful to see her right here. As you may count on, the massive new occasion right here is New Mutants flavored, however there are additionally some Spidey shenanigans happening in one other occasion known as Assault of the Spider-Bots. Cool. As all the time, pop into the sport in order for you extra granular notes as a result of there are a whole lot of little tweaks right here that I can’t go over in a single paragraph.
MARVEL SNAP, Free
Spider-Versus! It’s a Spider-Man occasion! It’s a Spider-Verse occasion! Folks, what meaning. This sport is getting the coveted UMMSotW award for this week, and it’s the most totally deserving sport to obtain that honor in fairly a while. Ghost Spider! Spider-Man 2099! Spider-Ham! Silk! They’re all right here! I’ve bought all arms on deck arising with builds utilizing these new playing cards, so want me luck or come and kill me. Additionally, some new Conquest mode arising quickly. However Spiders! So many Spiders!
That about wraps it up for final week’s important updates. I’m certain I’ve missed some, although, so please be at liberty to remark beneath and let everybody know if you happen to suppose one thing needs to be talked about. As normal, main updates will seemingly get their very own information tales all through this week, and I’ll be again subsequent Monday to summarize and fill within the blanks. Have an awesome week!
