- [Narrator] Recently, an additional 30 games
have been confirmed for Apple Arcade,
so today, I'm going to be going
through each one in more depth.
Please note this list is in no particular order
and the information I share here is subject to change.
Number 30, we have ShockRods.
First, we have an action-packed arena shooter with cars,
which has been brought to you by Stainless Games.
It's actually a launch title on Apple Arcade.
ShockRods will feature a six versus six
or 12-player free-for-all arena battles.
When in these battles, you can choose from dozens
of customizable cars and find weapons
and power-up scattered across the environments.
Different multiplayer modes will be available, too,
but you can also play offline against bots, if you wish,
and the game will support controllers.
ShockRods looks to have console-quality graphics
and fun multiplayer gameplay.
Number 29 is Cat Quest 2.
The Gentlebros are bringing Cat Quest 2 to Apple Arcade
first on the 19th of September, as a timed exclusive,
with the Steam, Switch, PS4,
and Xbox One versions coming later in, I think, September.
If you never played the first one
or anything about this title, well, it's an open-world
action-RPG, where you can play as both a cat and a dog
and you can explore locations
filled with dangerous creatures.
Cat Quest 2 will also support controllers.
Number 28, we have Various Daylife.
Unfortunately, all I have is a single
screenshot image for Various Daylife.
I do know that it is a brand-new RPG from Square Enix,
the creators of Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler.
Apple have described the game in their Newsroom page.
"In the year 211 of the Imperial Era,
"players explore a newly discovered continent
"while living life to the fullest in the city of Erebia."
So take what you want from all that info.
Number 27 is Jenny LeClue - Detectivu.
Here we have an adventure story game by Mografi.
It is set in the town of Arthurton,
which is actually located in South Australia,
if that's what this game is going for.
Fun fact, a massive amount of the developers
a part of Apple Arcade are actually from Australia
and Queensland, where I'm located,
and I couldn't be more proud.
It's awesome.
Anyway, Jenny LeClue will bring you very complex characters,
great voice dialogue, and a distinctive aesthetic.
I'm hoping it can be on the level of Thimbleweed Park
because we need more games like that on mobile
and even on Mac and Apple TV.
The game will support controllers,
may not be available at launch, I can't confirm that,
and will be available on Steam and console, too.
Number 26, we have INMOST.
This is one of my most anticipated platformer games of 2019
and only recently, I found out that Chucklefish Games,
I hope I said that correctly,
are bringing it to Apple Arcade.
That's awesome.
What I love most about it is the very fluid gameplay,
from the movement to combat.
It's so slick
and looks to be very challenging at the same time.
INMOST will follow three playable characters
in an old abandoned castle.
You'll have to do a lot of exploring in order to escape.
INMOST will be available on Apple Arcade
and can be purchased separately on other platforms.
(upbeat electronic music)
Number 25 is Dodo Peak.
I'd say this retro platformer by Moving Pieces Interactive
is going to be a very popular game for the whole family.
Why?
Well, from first glance, the art style
and arcade gameplay present a more casual tone.
You play as a dodo bird here
and must rescue your babies across a vast amount of levels.
The challenge is to maneuver them home
while avoiding obstacles and enemies.
I'd say Dodo Peak is a perfect game for the touchscreen
and anyone will be able to just pick it up
and play whilst still being offered a challenge.
I believe Dodo Peak is an Apple Arcade exclusive,
but I may be wrong there.
Number 24, we have Steven Universe: Unleash the Light.
What you're looking at is an original
Cartoon Network game, cowritten by Rebecca Sugar.
According to Apple
and I quote, "Players pick their favorite characters,
"choose which Gems are in their party,
"unlock awesome new abilities,
"and equip alternate costumes
"in the ultimate mobile role-playing game."
So far, they have only provided this screenshot image.
I'd say this game will be aimed at kids,
but adults should also enjoy it.
Number 23 is ChuChu Rocket! Universe.
20 years later, ChuChu Rocket
is getting an exclusive Apple Arcade sequel.
The visuals are now in 3D,
but the gameplay is said to be very familiar.
New mechanisms have been added, like switches or teleports,
and obviously, new environments,
many of which are inspired by the original game.
Frantic multiplayer will be added, too.
According to SEGA, ChuChu Rocket! Universe
is said to be a launch title, so that's good news.
Also, this is one of the games I'm most looking forward
to playing on my Apple TV with friends.
I think it's perfect for it.
Number 22, we have Pac-Man Battle Royale
I don't have much footage for this one, sorry,
but it's a new take on Pac-Man.
That's what I do know.
It features a four-player battle mode
where the last Pac-Man standing wins.
Bandai Namco have not stated yet if this is a launch title
or if it's exclusive to Apple Arcade either.
Again, this game is perfect for Apple TV and even Mac.
Number 21 is Mosaic.
Remember Among The Sleep?
Well, Mosaic is made by the same people, Krillbite,
and in collaboration with Raw Fury.
It's Krillbite's second big game
and is nothing like Among the Sleep, at all.
Mosaic is a mysterious narrative game where you follow
an average commuter who is living a very repetitive
and lonely life.
That is until, one day, a strange thing happens to him.
Not sure when this game is coming to us,
but I do know that it won't be an Apple Arcade exclusive.
Number 20, we have Ballistic Baseball.
Gameloft one of the most well-known
mobile developers out there are bringing
their next title to Apple Arcade, Ballistic Baseball.
All I have is this image
and a statement from Apple Newsroom,
and I quote, "Ballistic Baseball is an action-packed
"arcade baseball game that captures
"the intense battles between pitcher
"and battler in live head-to-head multiplayer matches."
So take what you want from that.
Number 19 is Shantae and the Seven Sirens.
Okay, I featured this game in my previous episode,
but recently its name was changed from Shantae 5
to Shantae and the Seven Sirens,
so I thought it was worthy of going on this list.
It's the fifth entry in the series,
which originally debuted on Game Boy Color
way back in 2002.
You can explore an interconnected world,
enjoy classic platforming gameplay, meet new
and returning characters, witness new 4K resolution
available on Macs and maybe Apple TV 4K only,
and you can collect and use new power ups.
WayForward have stated that
it's not an Apple Arcade exclusive.
Number 18 we have Spyder.
Sumo Digital are working on their new,
homegrown title, Spyder, which is a working title.
All I know of this one is that you play
as a robot spider, I believe.
Apparently, this title is not available at launch
and is coming in 2020 as an Apple Arcade exclusive.
Number 17 is Lifeslide.
Apparently, Lifeslide by Block Zero
is a story of life itself.
It takes you through all stages of life,
so each level will represent a segment from the human life
and is open to interpretation by you, the player.
There will be no violence, narration, or test.
It's said to be coming in 2020
and won't be an exclusive game to this subscription service.
Number 16, we have Super Impossible Road.
This is a high-speed racing game where you
and other players must attempt to race down courses
that have crazy twists and turns.
It's going to have customization, split screen,
and online multiplayer and single player modes, too.
The developer, Rogue Games, have stated
that Super Impossible is going to be
an Apple Arcade exclusive,
but I'm not sure if it's available at launch, though.
Number 15 is Dread Nautical.
Zen Studios recently announced that their turn-based
tactical strategy game
is coming to this subscription service.
That's all they've shared and this key art.
More info is coming soon.
Number 14, we have WHAT THE GOLF?
This is a silly physics-based golf parody game.
According to the devs, Triband,
it's an anti-golf game for people who hate golf.
Every level will be a different type of golf minigame
with slightly different mechanics, too.
I think if you enjoy games like Donut County
or Human Fall Flat, WHAT THE GOLF? is perfect you.
It's not meant to be taken too seriously.
No release date has been shared
and it's not an Apple Arcade exclusive title either.
Number 13 is Skate City.
Skate City is born for the touchscreens on an iPhone
or iPad, it's perfect for it,
but it will stay play great with a controller
on Apple TV or keyboard on a Mac.
Snowman are bringing you a skating experience
where you can pull of smooth grinds
and manuals across different city streets.
Skate City is an exclusive title
and I believe it will be available in the coming weeks.
Number 12, we have Cricket Through the Ages.
Here we have a silly physics game
that the team Devolver are behind.
It's a survival simulator for cricket games
that involves two players in one on one matches.
It attempts to show a historical depiction of cricket
throughout that ages, but in a very, very silly fashion.
I don't know much else about this title yet.
Number 11 is Redout: Space Assault.
I don't really know much about this game.
All I have is a short clip
from the latest Apple Arcade trailer.
Obviously, it will feature space exploration and battles.
That all I know.
Number 10, we have Possessions.
Lucid Labs and Noodlecake Studios just confirmed
that their puzzle-adventure, Possessions,
is coming exclusively to Apple Arcade.
It's a tale of a family,
crafted without any dialogue or text,
and shown through colorful and minimalist 3D visuals.
Players can explore multiple rooms
and within these rooms, you can rotate
and change the perspective,
and you can even experience the game
in the real world with AR.
I also believe this game will be available at launch.
Number nine is Manifold Garden.
After being in development
for almost six years, William Chyr,
and I hope I said that correctly,
is finally ready to bring his exploration game to us.
He said, "It is a game that reimagines physics and space,
"and you can manipulate gravity to gain new perspectives
"and walk on any visible surface."
It's going to feature amazing sound design
and music, a photo mode, which is not available at launch,
however, and it will have high-end visuals.
According to Chris, it wasn't an easy task to translate
Manifold Garden to iOS, tvOS,
and macOS, but with the help of others,
they managed to pull it off
and it will play great with touch controls, too.
Good job, guys.
It's also not an Apple Arcade exclusive.
Number eight, we have EarthNight.
Auto-runners may be everywhere on the App Store
because it's a very popular genre
and I know some of you are very sick of them,
but Cleaversoft intend to change the way you think
of this genre, by designing a game on a much grander scale.
It takes place in a dystopian future
after the dragon apocalypse.
Every human is forced to live above the planet in space,
but a teenager
and photographer go back down to take back their planet.
Every element in EarthNight is hand-painted
and looks gorgeous.
The levels will generate randomly,
which means every time you pick it up,
you'll be playing something completely different.
EarthNight will be available on Apple Arcade first,
with other platforms coming soon after.
Number seven is Guildlings.
Not much has been shared about this title yet.
I do know it's a fantasy adventure
that support controllers, though.
I could not find a trailer for this game,
so you're seeing development footage
and concept art from their Twitter page.
More info should come soon.
Number six, we have Rayman Mini.
All I have is two images for Rayman Mini by Ubisoft.
You appear to have been reduced to the size of an ant
and according to Apple, I quote,
"Players use insects, mushrooms,
"and plants to run through the world as quickly as possible
"or try over and over again to achieve the perfect score."
More info to come.
Number five is Towaga: Among Shadows.
Towaga: Among Shadows is an intense
single-player action game.
Sunny Cake Games
and Noodlecake have shared that it's their most
visually impressive game to date.
Nothing else has been shared yet, unfortunately.
Number four, we have Shinsekai: Into the Depths.
If you're were watching the Apple September event last week,
you would've seen Capcom present
their new Apple Arcade exclusive game on stage.
Apparently, it has console-quality technology behind it
and all the game sounds have been crafted
under water, so that's pretty noteworthy.
It's an atmospheric underwater platformer
that's centered on an ocean diver
and players will need master jumping
around the environments and shooting while thrusting.
(upbeat electronic music)
Number three is The Enchanted World.
Here is a puzzle-adventure from Noodlecake again.
It asks players to help a young fairy
piece together a magic world torn apart by dark forces.
In fact, The Enchanted World does have a real-life story
behind it that is brought to you in a very creative manner.
Anyway, The Enchanted World
is an Apple Arcade exclusive title.
Number two, we have Decoherence.
In the coming weeks, Efecto Studios competitive
action-strategy game will be available
on this subscription service.
It features the ability to craft your own robot team.
You can plan battles with an in-depth control system, too,
and learn to adapt to the environment
and learn to read your opponents' intentions.
It looks to have great visual fidelity
and challenging gameplay that all can enjoy.
Number one, we have Exit the Gungeon.
Big news; in a collaboration
between Devolver Digital, Dodge Roll,
and Singlecore Games, we are getting the follow-up game,
Exit The Gungeon, debuting soon on Apple Arcade.
It's a bullet hell dungeon climber
that asks you to ascend and escape via elevators.
Whilst on your journey, you'll be shooting everything
that you can see moving using your constantly changing gun.
Along with Oceanhorn 2, this is one of my most
anticipated games to play on Apple Arcade
and I think some of you may agree with me.
It just looks like a classic arcade game.
It looks great.
Are you going to subscribe to Apple Arcade?
And if so, which game are you most
looking forward to playing and why?
Let me know in the comments.
Be sure to watch my first episode
talking about 35 other confirmed titles.
Please leave a like, as this was a massive,
massive, massive project to push out to you guys.
That would be great.
All the work would be worth it then.
Anyway, thanks for watching.
