TouchArcade's Weekly Update Roundup: Noteworthy Game Updates

Hey everyone! Welcome back to our weekly roundup of significant game updates! This week's list features a mix of big-name titles, with a strong emphasis on free-to-play games and some Apple Arcade additions. You can always check for updates yourself via the TouchArcade forums, but this summary highlights some you might have missed. Let's dive in!

Subway Surfers: Sydney's getting a veggie makeover! This update introduces a "green" theme with Veggie tokens, a bean burger build challenge, and the unlockable character Billy Bean. Expect plenty of green-themed characters, boards, and bundles. Save the planet, one bean burger at a time!

Tiny Tower: Tap Idle Evolution: The Olympic event is over, making way for a summer-themed event. Serve VIPs, roll the dice for event points, and earn rewards at specific milestones. Each week offers unique challenges, with final rewards based on overall progress. While pay-to-win elements exist, there's still plenty of free stuff to earn.

MARVEL Puzzle Quest: Hero RPG: Following the Deadpool and Wolverine event, this update focuses on post-event cleanup. This includes a rebalance for Old Man Logan (with a new costume) and the conclusion of the latest PVP Season of Mind. While primarily maintenance, it's a reminder that Marvel Puzzle Quest continues to deliver consistent updates.

ANOTHER EDEN: This week's update features a King of Fighters crossover event! Alongside the crossover, a new Parallel Time Layer Ally, the Thornbound Witch Shanie, has been added. The inclusion of Mai, Terry, Kyo, and Kula makes this a noteworthy update. (Awarding this the UMMSotW – Update Most Likely to Make You Say "Ooh" – award for Mai's coolness!)

Temple Run: Legends: The recently launched Temple Run title receives a new Outfit System, allowing you to unlock and equip outfits to change character appearances and gain in-game advantages. Stylish and strategic!

TMNT Splintered Fate: This update brings several improvements from other platforms to the mobile version. Enjoy couch co-op, cross-platform online multiplayer, enhanced controller interfaces, and upgraded graphics and audio. It's like a free extra topping on your pizza!

Disney Dreamlight Valley: The Princess and the Frog takes center stage! Tiana arrives to establish a restaurant and stall, alongside Remy. A New Orleans-style parade adds to the festive atmosphere. It's great to see less prominent Disney films represented!

Outlanders: Volume VI of the Outlanders Chronicles introduces six new playable leaders and explores the rise and fall of a community impacted by a missing comet. Intriguing!

SimCity BuildIt: Another Sydney-themed update, this one focusing on eco-friendly additions. Construct buildings like the Beam Wireless, Green Exchange, and Flower Bud. Limited-time structures include the Sydney Zoo and Paper Bag. Participate in the Mayor's Pass Season for extra rewards.

Merge Mansion: This week's free-to-play matching puzzle game update introduces a new Speakeasy area, improvements to the Landing Room and Lounge, a new Mystery Pass with a pet, balance adjustments, and several upcoming events. Bug fixes are also included.

That's it for this week's update summary! Let us know in the comments if you think we missed anything. Major updates will receive individual news stories throughout the week, and we'll be back next Monday with another roundup. Have a great week!
