Apple Arcade is adding Vampire Survivors+ to the platform next month, along with Temple Run: Legends.
You'll be able to download them both from 1 August 2024.
Apple Arcade subscribers are in for a treat next month as a roguelike RPG with 95% on Metacritic is coming to the platform at no extra cost.
Vampire Survivors+ will be available on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Mac from 1 August and we cannot wait. It will even include the four-player co-op mode that's had tongues a-wagging.
Originally released on PC in October 2022, Vampire Survivors has since proved a big hit on Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X/S. It features crazy shoot-em-up action with role-playing and survival elements.
Players are faced with procedurally generated waves of monsters to defeat, with the ability to level up at the end of each stage. There are power-ups and weapons to enhance along the way, while sessions can be played solo or with up to four players.
It's all great, often mad fun and it'll be interesting to see it running on mobile.
Also released at the same time is Temple Run: Legends, which takes the classic endless runner to a whole new level.
There are fresh characters to choose from, new climates, and over 500 stages in a new career mode.
