Apple Arcade launched Retro Bowl College+ on August 6, a version of New Star Games' 2023 college football spin-off. The game lets players manage one of over 250 college teams using simple swipe-based controls for passing, running and kicking, while defense is handled by the game's simulation. Off the field, players must juggle roster morale, player ratings, facility upgrades and team budgets.
A build guide for retro arcade cabinets advises starting not with hardware choices like the Raspberry Pi, but with deciding which games you want to play, since that determines control layout needs. It recommends mocking up control panels on cardboard before cutting wood, and outlines three paths for the cabinet body itself: building from plywood or MDF, buying a flat-pack kit, or repurposing an existing cabinet.
Apple Arcade has released a limited-time crossover between Sneaky Sasquatch and Subway Surfers+, running through October 7, giving players four character skins, two hoverboards, and a reimagined level themed around Sasquatch Valley. Apple also released a set of Sneaky Sasquatch stickers for iMessage, and confirmed a separate birdwatching-themed update for Sneaky Sasquatch arriving September 17.
