The best exclusives
Outlanders 2
The city building experience is enriched with many new features: you return to the wild lands with twice as many buildings, resources, and renewed graphics. If everything has evolved, the offbeat humor of the first game remains intact. 21 levels are currently offered, with many more to come soon. And then, what graphics!
Game Room
On the program: classic board, card and dice games, brought together in a single app. Solitaire, Checkers, Backgammon, Yacht, and many more are at your disposal, whether online or offline, solo or multiplayer. What's more, Game Room is compatible with Apple Vision Pro for an ultra-immersive gaming experience. Basic, but we love it.
Rabbids: Multiverse
The craziest rabbits in video games invite themselves into an adventure faithful to their crazy style. Knights, ninjas, pirates, cowboys and many other characters are also there. Across five universes and more than 50 stages, you build a deck to face challenges or face other players. It is therefore aimed at both competitors and those who prefer a more leisurely progression. An extremely well finished game.
Tamagotchi Adventure Kingdom
This game is especially aimed at those who love sweet adventures and wonderful worlds. With nearly 300 characters to meet and fantastic locations to explore, you take on challenges to discover treasures. In addition to the adventure, you can customize your camp and your characters.
And for this holiday season, the game is offering a special event full of surprises: new decorations and accessories, as well as new daily rewards. A very cute game, which is not only aimed at the youngest players!
Talking Tom Blast Park
Alongside Talking Tom, you defend a colorful amusement park, threatened by a horde of raccoons who are trying to sabotage it. Reflexes and strategies are required to repel intruders. The progression is smooth and regularly reveals new settings. With easy handling and a cartoon style, this game is accessible to everyone.
BEAST : Bio Exo Arena Suit Team
BEAST's new single-player mode immerses you in a captivating story, where you explore planets and meet many characters. You play as an animal of your choice, capable of switching from an agile form (PET) to a more powerful form (BEAST) depending on the situation. And for those who prefer multiplayer, you can form your team and challenge players from around the world in 3v3 battles.
NFL Retro Bowl ’25
This game lets you experience the NFL with retro pixel-art graphics. You build your team from hundreds of authentic players, then try to lead them to victory and clinch the Super Bowl. You have the opportunity to make strategic decisions on the field, and manage player morale. It is obviously aimed at American football fans. And if you're not familiar with this sport, try it anyway: it remains accessible to everyone, with easy handling and a superb gaming experience.
The best reissues
Apple Arcade doesn't just offer exclusive titles. The Californian firm also adapts existing games outside its platform to integrate them into its paid catalog. Incidentally, these titles gain the mention “+” at the end of their name. This allows you to play excellent premium titles, without having to pay for them individually, since they are included for only €7 per month with Apple Arcade. Here are precisely the ports arriving in 2024 in Apple Arcade which particularly appealed to us.
