Apple Arcade's library will get a major boost next month with the launch of two all-time classics
The Cupertino-based giant just announced that both "Stardew Valley+" and "Slay the Spire+" will launch on its subscription service in July, expanding the platform's "App Store Great" collection
And they're adding Lego Duplo World Yay?
Stardew Valley is not only one of the best Switch games, it's also one of the best podcast games This laid-back farming sim is perfect for mobile play, and aspiring farmers will be dazzled by its meticulous crop-growing routine when it hits Apple Arcade on July 21
It's a nice, warm, huggable game Though "bear hug" might be more accurate Last time I checked, I had spent over 173 hours immersed in Concerned Ape's addictive farming RPG on Steam See, I really like taking care of virtual chickens
Another big deal is the arrival of Slay the Spire on Apple's platforms This amazing deck builder, coming July 7, weaves together elements of Rogue Lite to create a card-dealing masterpiece This 350+ card, deck-building great strategy title will soon rival the best iOS games
Why the "+" in both titles? Like all App Store Great Editions, these versions of Stardew and Slay include all content and updates and have no in-app purchases or ads
In addition to these two masterpieces, Ridiculous Fishing EX will be released on July 14 The remastered version of this overlooked rarity boasts a new competitive Pro Fishing Tour mode with challenges and leaderboards Personally, I don't need much of an excuse to revisit a game where I can "catch" fish with a chainsaw
Hello Kitty Island Adventure is coming to Apple Arcade in two weeks, on July 28 It's got an "Animal Crossing" vibe: Apparently, there's nothing more horribly addictive than a life-sim that swallows up Nintendo's "existence"
If you haven't checked out Apple Arcade yet, the service is $499/month/£499; Apple is currently offering a one-month free trial, and if you purchase certain Apple devices (like the best iPhones), 90 days after the device purchase You are entitled to a 3-month trial as long as you use the offer within the first 90 days of the device purchase
Am I going to become an Apple Arcade subscriber to pour in another 173 hours to save dear old grandpa's farm in Stardew Valley with an iPad Pro? I'll never tell
