Block Blast!+, Art of Fauna: Cozy Puzzles+ and More Join Apple Arcade in September 2026

 

Pixel-art NFL players line up on a football field in a stadium, with a 'Retro Bowl 27' sign in the center.Apple is adding another batch of games to Apple Arcade next month, with Block Blast!+ and Art of Fauna: Cozy Puzzles+ headlining the latest additions. Both games arrive on September 3 alongside NFL Retro Bowl ’27, Coloring Games for Families+, and Let’s Play! Oink Games+.

Block Blast!+ is arguably the marquee title of the latest batch. Developed by Hungry Studio, the popular puzzle game tasks players with placing blocks on a grid to complete and clear rows and columns while building increasingly larger combos. The Apple Arcade version offers the same familiar gameplay without ads or in-app purchases.

Art of Fauna: Cozy Puzzles+ offers something a little more relaxing. The 2025 App Store Award winner for Cultural Impact combines jigsaw-style puzzles with nature-inspired artwork and stories centred around wildlife and conservation. The game also includes several accessibility features designed to make its puzzles approachable for more players.

Three additional games will arrive on September 3. NFL Retro Bowl ’27 returns for another season with a new Gauntlet Mode, while Coloring Games for Families+ features more than 3,000 activities geared toward players of all ages. Let’s Play! Oink Games+ rounds out the lineup with nine digital tabletop games that can be played alone, locally with friends, or online.

Apple is also rolling out several updates to existing Arcade games throughout August. Puffies adds 28 new packs on August 12, including two new artwork collections. Simon’s Cat – Blast Time will receive 200 additional levels beginning August 20, with 50 new stages arriving each week for four weeks.

Finally, Stitch will celebrate reaching 800 unique hoops on August 26 with a special commemorative hoop and achievement.

In other Apple Arcade news, Madden NFL 27 Arcade Edition recently dropped on the service, offering a full Madden experience without ads or in-app purchases.

Apple Arcade costs $8.99 per month in Canada, with a free trial available to new subscribers. The service is also included with Apple One and offers access to more than 200 games without ads or in-app purchases across supported Apple devices.
