Three New Apple Arcade Games
DREDGE+
DREDGE+ brings the complete edition of the acclaimed fishing adventure to Apple Arcade. Players explore eerie archipelagos, dredge the ocean floor for hidden treasures, and uncover strange mysteries beneath the waves. The Arcade version includes every previously released DLC pack, including The Pale Reach, The Iron Rig, and Blackstone Key, along with a custom rod for players starting the journey.
Unpacking+
Unpacking+ delivers a calm puzzle experience where players remove belongings from boxes and arrange them inside a new home. As each room comes together, the objects slowly reveal pieces of the life story behind the move. The game mixes puzzle solving with home decoration and creates a relaxing, thoughtful gameplay experience.
My Very Hungry Caterpillar+
My Very Hungry Caterpillar+ turns Eric Carle’s beloved character into an interactive experience where players care for their own caterpillar. Players feed it, play with it, and explore its colorful world while it grows larger and unlocks new activities. The journey ends when the caterpillar spins a cocoon and transforms into a butterfly.
Updates Coming to Existing Games
Apple Arcade will also deliver updates to two popular titles. Disney SpellStruck receives a Star Wars crossover on March 19 with new Adventure Mode levels inspired by The Empire Strikes Back, along with Darth Vader and Lando Calrissian as playable characters. Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop celebrates the franchise’s 35th anniversary on April 9 with a new mode called Puyo Puyo Garden, where players grow and battle their own unique Puyo.
Apple Arcade costs $6.99 per month in the United States and also comes bundled with Apple One plans. Players can access the service through the App Store or the Apple Games app to explore the full catalog of games.
