The paid-for gaming subscription, which gives players unlimited access to all games in its catalog, will be adding Cozy Caravan, Sago Mini Jinja’s Garden, True Skate+, and Potion Punch 2+ to its roster as the first additions of 2026.

This comes after the subscription service added SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit 2, PowerWash Simulator, Cult of the Lamb Arcade Edition, Subway Surfers+ and NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja STORM+ this month. 

Alongside these titles, the platform is celebrating one of its top-ranked titles Sneaky Sasquatch this month too, as the Harvest to harbor farming expansion arrives on December 16. Apple is bringing the world of Sneaky Sasquatch to life at Apple The Grove in Los Angeles this weekend, with an interactive installation open to the public from Friday (December 12) and Saturday (December 13).

What games will Apple Arcade add in January?

All four new additions to Apple Arcade will come on Thursday, January 8, 2026, including Cozy Caravan which is a single-player journey that includes the arts of crafting, trading, and exploration.

Players must travel through landscapes in their old caravan and help communities along the way. It’s on these journeys that there’s the opportunity to meet an eclectic mix of characters and build connections.

Then, there’s Sajo Mini Jinja’s Garden, which is a brand-new 3D open-world adventure from the developers at Sago Mini. The skateboarding sim, True Skate+, will be added too, with the aim of giving the closest feeling to the real-world sport.

Finally, Potion Punch 2+ will be added to the platform too, with this being a fast-paced time-management game where you meet young alchemic Lyra and have to cook different items to win the hearts of customers.

Now, there are over 200 games available on the platform, with these able to be played across devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Vision Pro) based on hardware and software compatibility.
