Apple Arcade is filled with familiar and classic games, alongside exclusive titles, that you can play for $7 per month (£7, AU$10). Many of these games can be found in the App Store, but they may have paywalls and ads that hinder your gaming experience.

An Apple Arcade subscription provides access to games without paywalls and ads, a feature typically denoted by «Plus» in the name. Here are all the games you can play on the service starting in April.

Dredge Plus

Release date: April 2
Developer: Black Salt Games

The App Store Awards’ iPad Game of the Year for 2025, Dredge Plus is the haunting fishing game complete with all previously released content, including the DLCs The Pale Reach, The Iron Rig and Blackstone Key. Players take control of their own trawler in a remote archipelago in search of treasures buried deep in the waters. With those treasures are a wealth of mysteries and horrors waiting to be brought to shore.

Unpacking Plus

Release date: April 2
Developer: Humble Bundle

Unpacking Plus is a puzzle game about the experience of moving into a new place and placing all your belongings in a new place called home. As the room changes, so does the story of the person moving. Unpacking Plus satisfies that itch of wanting to create an ideal and orderly living space while dropping clues about who is going through a big change in their life. There are no timers, scores or traditional goals, letting players relax and focus on the simple satisfaction of organizing each space exactly how they want.

My Very Hungry Caterpillar Plus

Release date: April 2
Developer: StoryToys Limited

My Very Hungry Caterpillar Plus brings Eric Carle’s beloved children’s character to life in a colorful, interactive experience where players care for their own growing caterpillar. Starting from a tiny egg, you feed, play with and nurture the creature as it explores a bright garden world filled with small activities like picking fruit, painting pictures, growing flowers and discovering toys. As the caterpillar grows, new activities unlock and the adventure expands. Eventually, it forms a cocoon and transforms into a butterfly, letting the cycle begin again in a gentle, kid-friendly game designed to encourage curiosity, creativity and a love of nature.

You can start playing these games in April, and you can access plenty of others now in Apple Arcade for $7 a month or $50 annually. You can also try Apple Arcade free for one month with your first sign-up, or you can get a three-month free trial when you buy an Apple device. To access Apple Arcade, open the App Store on your iOS or iPadOS device and tap the joystick in the menu bar.
