5 new Apple Arcade games coming in June

Published on:

Apple Arcade plans to expand its growing library with five new games on June 5. That offers subscribers fresh gaming experiences across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Vision Pro. And Vision Pro headset users will get to play a spatial-computing version of the comedy racing game What the Car?

The new titles include both original releases and popular games making their debut on the subscription service. Plenty of existing games will get updates, too.

5 new Apple Arcade games coming June 5

What the Car? comes to Vision Pro

Vision Pro owners will be able to experience What the Car?, a spatial computing version of the award-winning racing comedy game. Developer Triband has created a unique control system where players use their hands to grasp a virtual steering wheel that extends from a floating TV portal with legs.

The unconventional racing adventure features cars with constantly changing elements like wings, legs and even “the common cold,” with Spatial Computing allowing gameplay elements to pop out of the screen.

Uno: Arcade Edition

Also among new releases sits Uno: Arcade Edition, a reimagined version of the classic card game featuring Apple Arcade-exclusive gameplay modes. Developed by Mattel163, this digital adaptation offers solo play with classic Uno rules or more competitive experiences through the new Custom Games mode with special options like Wild Swap Hands and Color Showdown.

Players can personalize their experience with unlockable frames, special effects and emotes across three distinct game modes.

Lost in Play+ brings its award-winning charm to the service, having previously won iPad Game of the Year in the 2023 App Store Awards. This point-and-click adventure follows a brother-sister duo on a journey through childhood imagination with no dialogue. It relies instead on thoughtfully crafted puzzles and colorful animation.

And rounding out the new releases, here comes Helix Jump+. It’s a reimagined version of the classic 3D arcade game featuring enhanced haptics, visual effects and exclusive unlockable skins without ads or interruptions.
