Apple Arcade introduces spatial games specifically tailored for Apple Vision Pro

Spatial games designed exclusively for Apple Arcade on Apple Vision Pro unlock exciting new gameplay opportunities by seamlessly blending digital content with the physical world. The visionOS, featuring a cutting-edge three-dimensional user interface and input system controlled by a user's eyes, hands, and voice, delivers powerful spatial experiences.

With Apple Arcade, players can immerse themselves in a variety of captivating spatial games. For example, in Super Fruit Ninja, players can slice apples with their own hands as their living room transforms into a virtual dojo. WHAT THE GOLF? allows players to freely move around a quirky golf course right in their own homes, teeing up the perfect shot. Synth Riders offers a mesmerizing audiovisual experience, turning the surrounding space into a retro-futuristic world where players catch notes with their hands, ride rails, and dodge obstacles.

Alex Rofman, Apple's senior director of Apple Arcade, expressed excitement about the new era of gaming, stating, "This is just the beginning of a new era in gaming, with players being fully immersed in stunning game worlds and interacting with games in their physical environment in amazing new ways." Apple is committed to offering unique spatial games on Apple Arcade that are exclusively possible on Apple Vision Pro, and they plan to introduce even more magical spatial gaming experiences in the near future.

One of the standout features of Apple Arcade is Game Room, which brings traditional tabletop classics to life in a player's own home. Games like chess, hearts, and solitaire are recreated with remarkable authenticity, allowing up to four players to engage in online play.

Tommy Palm, CEO, and founder of Resolution Games, the developer behind Game Room, highlighted the immersive nature of the gaming experience, saying, "We've designed Game Room to provide the most authentic digital game night to date, with gaming experiences that are practically indistinguishable from their real-world counterparts." By reproducing classic gaming pieces and enabling new ways of interaction, such as playing cards and pawns, Game Room showcases the incredible capabilities of Apple Vision Pro to deliver lifelike immersion within real-world environments.

Apple Arcade currently offers a wide selection of spatial games, including Game Room, WHAT THE GOLF?, Cut the Rope 3, Jetpack Joyride 2, Patterned, Illustrated, Wylde Flowers, stitch., Synth Riders, LEGO Builder's Journey, Bloons TD 6+, and Super Fruit Ninja.

Super Fruit Ninja, developed by Halfbrick Studios, transports players into a world of fruit-slicing fun where they can cut up fruit with their hands, throw ninja stars, backhand bombs, and train in the art of juice jitsu.

Synth Riders, developed by Kluge Interactive, is a reimagined hit spatial rhythm game that turns the space around the player into a retro-futuristic world. Players catch notes with their hands, ride rails, and dodge obstacles, all within a brand-new audio-reactive spatial environment with dynamic visuals designed specifically for Apple Vision Pro.

Apple Arcade is continuously expanding its offerings, and exciting new spatial games are on the horizon. Soon, players can look forward to experiencing Alto's Odyssey: The Lost City by Land & Sea/Snowman, Gibbon: Beyond the Trees by Broken Rules, and Spire Blast by Orbital Knight. These games will transport players to fantastical worlds, allowing them to embark on sandboarding adventures, swing through the trees like gibbons, and strategically collapse towers that appear in their physical space.

In addition to the spatial games, Apple Arcade allows players to enjoy over 250 titles optimized for the incredible display of Apple Vision Pro. These popular games, like Sonic Dream Team, Sneaky Sasquatch, Disney Dreamlight Valley Arcade Edition, and TMNT: Splintered Fate, are available without ads or in-app purchases.
