Apple Arcade is set for its biggest month yet, with December 2025 hosting the arrival of Cult of the Lamb, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm, PowerWash Simulator and a major sequel to SpongeBob Patty Pursuit.
The new arrivals land right on time for the holiday season, which is likely by design. If you’ve got a chance to rest and recharge over this period, you’ll have plenty of new games to jump in with, charting a variety of genres.

Cult of the Lamb launches on Apple Arcade
First up, it’s great to see the Aussie-made, award-winning Cult of the Lamb arriving on Apple Arcade. This game is delightful and creepy in equal parts. By day, you’ll tend your flock of cult minions, and by night, you’ll journey through realms unknown to defeat eldritch gods and monsters.
The mobile version of Cult of the Lamb includes every major downloadable update and expansion launched to date, as well as new follower forms and base decorations exclusive to this Apple Arcade release.
Naruto and PowerWash Simulator are great additions to Apple Arcade
Beyond Cult of the Lamb, it’s also great to see Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm arriving on Apple Arcade in its ‘plus’ form. This is a classic fighting game that adapts the events of the Naruto anime in excellent fashion. While it does skip some corners, it’s a solid adaptation that lets you relive all the drama and flourish of this story.
The arrival of PowerWash Simulator will also be appreciated for those who just want to relax. Here, you’ll be cleaning a variety of objects by using touch controls (as well as gyroscope support) to wash away grime, one speck at a time.
