Apple Arcade games Crossy Road Castle and Solitaire Stories will launch tomorrow on the Vision Pro headset, adding two additional popular games to Apple’s first wearable device.
In Crossy Road Castle, players can advance through the tower levels with pinch-and-move gestures. Up to four players can play at a time, although there is also a single-player version of the game.
Crossy Road Castle for Vision Pro has the same features as the other versions of the game, including characters and hats to unlock, support for game controllers, and challenge events to complete. Levels are procedurally generated, so each new game is different.
Solitaire Stories offers players a virtual card table to play classic solitaire games. Several versions of solitaire are included, such as Klondike Quick Play, Spider and Draw 3, as well as support for online multiplayer games.
The game includes a progressive story with increasingly difficult levels, along with different deck designs to unlock. There are also daily challenges and contests.
Crossy Road Castle and Solitaire Stories will soon be available to download from the Vision Pro App Store.
Several Apple Arcade games available on iOS and macOS are receiving updates today, including Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop, Cooking Mama: Cuisine, Fruit Ninja Classic, and Zookeeper World.
