Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On () from Pokemon developer Game Freak launched on Apple Arcade earlier this year, and it remains one of the best additions to the service in 2023. Shaun even included it in his best Apple Arcade games feature which you can read here. Over the weekend, Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On on Apple Arcade was updated with PvP support including worldwide matchmaking. I didn’t even know this update was in the works and it is the nicest surprise. You can queue up for matchmaking from the menu and wait to be matched with randoms or invite players to play with. Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On has been getting updated with new horses and balance adjustments since launch, but this PvP update is its biggest one yet.

If you never played it on 3DS, Pocket Card Jockey was (sadly) one of the best 3DS eShop exclusives, and this enhanced remake for Apple Arcade is the best way to play it now.
