TouchArcade Rating: Apple's October 2024 Apple Arcade lineup is here, led by the highly anticipated NBA 2K25 Arcade Edition (). Following yesterday's Balatro announcement, Apple confirmed the October 3rd launch of NBA 2K25 Arcade Edition, alongside three App Store Greats. This release is significant for bringing The Neighborhood to iOS for the first time, offering players an immersive experience with outdoor courts, NBA legend recruitment, a new badge system, and more, including planned limited-time quests. See the gameplay screenshot below:
Joining NBA 2K25 Arcade Edition as App Store Greats are Smash Hit+, Furistas Cat Cafe+, and Food Truck Pup+. Having prior experience with only Smash Hit+, I'm eager to explore the others, time permitting after my Balatro+ playtime. Interested in adding these new games to your collection?
