TouchArcade's Weekly Update Roundup: Noteworthy Game Updates
Hello everyone, and welcome to another week's roundup of noteworthy game updates! This week's selection features a mix of big-name titles, with a strong emphasis on free-to-play games and some Apple Arcade additions. You can always check for updates yourself through the TouchArcade forums, but this summary highlights some you might have missed. Let's dive in!
Subway Surfers: The Sydney-based update introduces a "veggie revolution." Collect veggie tokens, create a bean burger, and unlock Billy Bean. Expect a plethora of green-themed characters, boards, and bundles. It's a fun, environmentally-conscious theme!
Tiny Tower: Tap Idle Evolution: The Olympic event makes way for a summer-themed event. Serve VIPs, roll the dice for event points, and earn rewards at various thresholds. Weekly challenges culminate in final rewards based on overall progress. While pay-to-win elements exist, there's still plenty of free content.
MARVEL Puzzle Quest: Hero RPG: Following the Deadpool and Wolverine event, this update focuses on post-event adjustments. Old Man Logan receives a rebalance and a new costume. The latest PVP season has concluded, so anticipate the next one soon.
ANOTHER EDEN: This update features a King of Fighters collaboration event, adding characters like Terry, Kyo, Mai, and Kula. A new Parallel Time Layer Ally, the Thornbound Witch Shanie, is also introduced. The inclusion of Mai earns this game our "UMMSotW" (Update Most Likely to Make Someone Say "Ooh!") award.
Temple Run: Legends: The new Outfit System lets you unlock and equip outfits to customize characters' appearances and gain in-game advantages.
TMNT Splintered Fate: This update brings improvements from other platforms to the mobile version, including couch co-op, cross-platform online multiplayer, enhanced controller interfaces, and graphical/audio upgrades.
Disney Dreamlight Valley: The Princess and the Frog update introduces Tiana, a new restaurant and stall, and a New Orleans-style parade. Remy also makes an appearance.
Outlanders: Volume VI of the Outlanders Chronicles is released, featuring six new playable leaders and a storyline centered around a missing comet.
SimCity BuildIt: Another Sydney-themed update, this one focuses on eco-friendly additions. Add buildings like the Beam Wireless, Green Exchange, and Flower Bud. Limited-time structures include the Sydney Zoo and Paper Bag. A Mayor's Pass Season is also available.
Merge Mansion: This update introduces a new Speakeasy area, improvements to the Landing Room and Lounge, a new Mystery Pass with a pet, balance adjustments, and several upcoming events. Bug fixes are also included.
That concludes this week's update summary. Please share any notable updates I might have missed in the comments below! Major updates will receive individual news stories throughout the week, and I'll be back next Monday with another roundup. Have a great week!
