Apple Arcade is set to welcome four new games this January, marking a significant expansion of its catalog. Among the highlights is Cozy Caravan by 5 Lives Studios, a single-player journey that combines crafting, trading, and exploration in a picturesque world. Players will guide their caravan through diverse landscapes, helping communities along the way while meeting an array of characters.
Also joining the service is Sago Mini Jinja’s Garden, a brand-new 3D open-world adventure from award-winning developers Sago Mini. This game promises to be packed with fun and surprises, offering players a fresh experience in the Apple Arcade universe. Additionally, True Skate+ by True Axis and Potion Punch 2+ by Monstronauts Inc. will make their debut, adding more variety to the service's lineup.
In a unique twist for the holiday season, Apple is bringing the world of Sneaky Sasquatch to hundreds of Apple Store locations worldwide. The beloved game, which has been a top-ranked title since its 2019 debut, will feature a new Harvest to Harbor update on December 16. This expansion introduces mushroom farming and a dynamic Crop Market, where players can strategically sell their harvests to maximize profits.
Visitors to select Apple Store locations can engage with the game in various ways. At Today at Apple sessions, they can spot a Sasquatch and join dance parties on the big screen. Families can also sign up for Kids: Draw with Sneaky Sasquatch sessions, where kids will create festive party scenes using drawing tools on iPad. These sessions will run every weekend through January 6.
In Los Angeles, Apple The Grove is hosting an interactive installation featuring the world of Sneaky Sasquatch. Open to the public on December 12 and 13, attendees can snap photos with Sasquatch, find hidden items for special prizes, and enjoy treats by the campfire.
