Apple Arcade Getting New Disney and Nickelodeon Games

Apple Arcade surpassed 200 games available on the service in August, and new titles continue to be added nearly every week. The latest game coming to Apple Arcade is Disney Melee Mania from Mighty Bear Games, which launches this Friday.

Disney Melee Mania is a battle arena game in which players battle in five-minute 3v3 matches to secure as many points as possible. There are several classic Disney and Pixar characters to choose from, including Wreck-It Ralph, Elsa, Mickey Mouse, Buzz Lightyear, and others. The game will be available on the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.

"We're thrilled to work with Disney to bring these beloved characters to the first-ever Disney and Pixar battle arena game, available exclusively on Apple Arcade," said Simon Davis, Mighty Bear Games CEO. "Fans will compete with arcade-style Disney and Pixar champions in a fun and frenzied all-out brawl to survive the chaotic melee and stay in the spotlight."

Another game coming soon to Apple Arcade is Nickelodeon Extreme Tennis, featuring iconic Nickelodeon characters, including SpongeBob SquarePants, Angelica, Rocko, Garfield, and others. A multiplayer mode pits players against each other against Nickelodeon-themed backdrops like Bikini Bottom, and there is also a single-player story mode where players are tasked with advancing through unique challenges for each character.
