The new games heading to ‌Apple Arcade‌ next month are as follows:

  • Pusheen's Place: The first officially licensed game starring Pusheen the Cat, letting players build a cozy paradise and collect more than 100 kitties while playing, crafting, and decorating rooms for characters like Pusheenicorn and Pancake Pusheen, alongside mini games such as Snack Stack, Parfait Pop, and Batch Match.
  • River City Survivors: An explosive survivors-like action game from the long running River City series, throwing players into waves of zombies with more than 20 playable characters, including franchise mainstays Kunio and Riki, and support for up to two companions.
  • Terraria+: A sandbox action adventure game where players fight, explore, and build through an ever expanding world, including the "Bigger & Boulder" 1.4.5 update, which adds a "Dead Cells" crossover and Pals from "Palworld," with support for up to seven players via Game Center or local Wi-Fi.
  • Touchgrind BMX 2+: A physics-based BMX stunt game with two finger controls designed to make every trick feel real.
  • 4 Pics 1 Word+: The Arcade edition of the puzzle game that has stumped and delighted more than 400 million players worldwide.

All of the new games will be available on October 1, 2026. Pusheen's Place joins Arcade's existing lineup of "cozy" titles, including "Hello Kitty Island Adventure," "Tamagotchi Adventure Kingdom," and "Cozy Caravan."

I still wouldn't pay extra for Arcade, but as a One subscriber it's cool to see the additions. My young daughter loves playing the Sesame Street games and they're actually pretty decent. The AAA dorks always roll in and piss all over Arcade threads on MR, but there's some quality casual gaming content on there.
Why are we "dorks" for wanting aaa games? You internet tough guys are hilarious.

I’m not saying that at all. Apple has chosen to cater to cozy gamers, kids, and casual gamers and that’s fine. But as a person that owns a iPad Pro m5 and higher end Mac’s i would also like AAA games that push the boundaries a bit. More Oceanhorn, Civ 7s, dredge type of games.
Imagine the hype if gta 6 ran native on apple devices.

Hey, I'm a dork too - my Steam library is full of AAA titles. But there's definitely a certain kind of gamer that seems to think that casual gaming isn't really gaming at all, and they're always crapping all over other people's choices.

I loved the Star Trek Legends game on Apple Arcade and even the nerfed version of CIV VII is pretty great. But overall Arcade still feels like a like an after thought and it needs its own app not the “Games” app that currently merges non-Arcade games with other iOS games. Worst of all Apple Arcade games still aren’t directly searchable on an iPhone.
