Hello everyone, and welcome to the week! Itās time once again for our look back at the noteworthy updates of the last seven days. Ah, that time between Easter but beforeā¦ the next holiday. What is the next holiday? Iāll have to ask someone who makes an eternally-updated app, they would certainly know. Anyway, thereās no particular theme to this weekās updates. They justā¦ are. But theyāre fun ones, I think. Of course, you can keep an eye out for updates yourself by participating in the TouchArcade forums. This weekly summary is just here to fill you in on the things you might have missed. Letās go for it!
Subway Surfers, Free Itās a Subway Surfers update, which means a new location, a new Surfer or two, and a new board or two. The location this time? Marrakesh. New Surfers? Hamza, Faiza, and Teabot. New boards? No idea. I guess they arenāt including that in the update notes anymore. There is a new booster in the form of the Super Bubble, which works like any shield would in a running game. You can also now share your accomplishments, such as they are, with your friends using the correctly-named Share Button. Okay, fine. I donāt like these new abridged notes, Jerry! I donāt like them at all!
MARVEL Future Fight, Free Two Marvel game updates this time, and oddly this one opts to bring in Black Swan just like the Marvel Snap one did a couple months back. Anyway, Black Swan is here as a Tier-3 playable Super Villain and a World Boss. Thanos gets a new Uniform, and there are also some April Foolsā Day Uniforms for Angel and Satana. Angel gets his Tier-4 Advancement, and some improvements have been made in the World Boss mode to make it more interesting to play. Not a huge update by any means, but any new playable character is welcome at this point in the gameās life.
Disney Heroes: Battle Mode, Free A new Disney Heroes update usually means a new Disney Hero, and this one is certainly no exception to that. This time we have someone rolling in from Phineas and Ferb, and itāsā¦ Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Fun to say, hard to type, and an interesting pick for a new character. Add him to your team and see what you can get going, I suppose. At this point, itās almost always a surprise to see who they add to this gameās extremely deep roster of characters.
Marvel Contest of Champions, Free Itās been a minute or two since the last time Iāve been able to do this, butā¦ Iām awarding this Marvel game the coveted UMMSotW award for the week. Wow! The new Change The Record event quest sees Spider-Punk and the Prowler joining the Contest, which means weāve got not one but two Hobie Browns in the mix. A new story chapter has been added, along with a number of new features and improvements to various modes. Oh, and King Groot (Deathless) arrives as a new Champion. He isā¦ Evil Groot. Enjoy!
Merge Mansion, Free Hereās the obligatory free-to-play matching puzzle game update for the week, and weāre checking in on that villainous Grandma to see what sheās up to. This latest version sees the addition of the Lounge area, which will likely have some kind of event tied to it. There are some UI improvements, and some special events that will pop later in the month. New levels are available for Gloves, Detergent, and Cleaning items, and all Lamps from levels 6 to 10 will now produce Moths. Do weā¦ do we want moths? I suppose we do. I canāt make sense of this gameās sekaikan, but itās still pretty fun to look at anyway.
Samba de Amigo: Party-To-Go, The Apple Arcade Samba de Amigo continues to grow, with four new songs to play. One of them is a big one, as Samba songs go. Take On Me is now in the game, though it isnāt the Reel Big Fish version seen in the classic games. Instead, we get the Weezer version. Well, itās still cool. Also in here is the Theme of Phantom R from the cult favorite Rhythm Thief & the Emperorās Treasure, Good-Bye Declaration by Chinozo, and Spicy Beach BBQ -Sizzling Mix-, which feels like itās here a few months early. But hey, new songs are new songs.
Cypher 007, Welcome to my Atlantis lair, Mr. Bond! I think youāll find the five new levels to be quite the challenge, and Karl Stromberg is ready to put an end to your mission. The Spy Who Loved Me? More like The Spy Who Loved Death! Ha ha! Iām a hilarious leader. All my henchmen tell me so. If you survive, you might get your hands on the Magnetic Watch and even some new outfits from Casino Royale, No Time To Die, and Goldfinger. But reallyā¦ what are the odds of that? Even if you live that long, youāll never escape the Mind Trap! Iād wish you good luck, Mr. Bond, but we both know even luck wonāt save you this time. Ha ha! Ha! Laugh with me, henchies!
Zookeeper World, Okay, I canāt really punch up a Zookeeper World update the same way I can with a James Bond game. But there are new puzzle stages to play here, twelve to be exact, and theyāll be available from next week. Why not now? I donāt know. Just be patient, I suppose. Update now, goodies later. But you can spend this week imagining how those new stages will be set up. Maybe an obstacle here? A conveyor there? Lovely. Just keep doing that for six more days and youāll be all set.
Bloons TD Battles 2, Free Note that this update also applies to the Apple Arcade + version of the game. Iāve used the standard version here for varietyās sake. Thereās a new hero in this update, Fateweaver Adora. She has a nice bag of tricks, including the Sharp Sting of Fate attack, the Eye of Misfortune debuff, and the nasty Chains of Fate. Throw in a new Bling season and a number of bug fixes and other improvements, and thatāll be the bunch. If you have Apple Arcade, play that version. This free one is a littleā¦ hungry, if you know what I mean.
Asphalt 9: Legends, Free Letās bring things to a close today with a bit of a legendary update. Oh wait, no. Iām being told this is not a legendary update, but rather a Legends update. Awkward. Good game, though. You get two new seasons here, one that sees you racing from Europe to Asia and another where you can enjoy some springtime fun with European supercars. Which ones? The Zenvo Aurora Tur, FV Frangivento AsfanĆØ, Aston Martin Vantage V12 2022, Lamborghini SC63, De Tomaso P900 and Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3.8. Thereās also an interesting event going on called the Korean Food Festival Special, which isnāt something you would expect to see in a racing game butā¦ it is the 2020s, and there is time to enjoy food culture. Thereās a bit more in here, but Iāll leave it to you to investigate if youāre interested.
That about wraps it up for last weekās significant updates. Iām sure Iāve missed some, though, so please feel free to comment below and let everyone know if you think something should be mentioned. As usual, major updates will likely get their own news stories throughout this week, and Iāll be back next Monday to summarize and fill in the blanks. Have a great week!
