Regular readers might have noticed the lack of posts from me this week on the site. I’ve been unwell, and I’m just recovering. Obviously I wasn’t going to miss the Apple Arcade weekly feature, but I did manage writing about Resident Evil Village on iPhone 15 Pro yesterday. Following the launch of NBA 2K24 Arcade Edition earlier this week, Apple has released many notable updates for games on the service today. These include newer and older games. I’m interested to see what Apple brings next month to the service. I assume we will likely hear about it in the coming days. Let’s get into the updates then. Cypher 007 (), our Game of the Week when it launched, got updated with support for the time-limited Day of the Dead Bond outfit.

Pac-Man Party Royale brings in the Spooky Cemetery Maze Theme in its halloween update. Two new worlds have been added to Adventure mode as well. Zookeeper World brings in the Animal Diorama Maker feature today. Stitch. brings in four special Weekly Hoops, 30 Daily Shikaku Levels, and more following today’s update. SEGA’s awesome Samba de Amigo: Party-To-Go brings in three new songs including the brilliant “I’m Here" from Sonic Frontiers and Go Go Cheer Girl! from Space Channel 5 Part 2. What The Car? has improvements to the steering with today’s update that also adds support for the Hallo-wheels Hunt event going on now. The final notable update is Grindstone celebrating its 4th anniversary with two new hats.

With the updates done, check out our forum threads for Cypher 007 here, Pac-Man Party Royale here, Zookeeper World here, Stitch. here, Samba de Amigo: Party-To-Go here, and What The Car? here. For all other Apple Arcade related things, check out our dedicated Apple Arcade forum for discussion on the service and every game included here. What do you think of Apple’s newly released games and updates this month so far?
