Celebrate the Holidays With Final Fantasy and More on Apple Arcade

The holidays are upon us, and it's getting chilly outside. That means it's the perfect time to stay inside and play a game by the fire. Luckily, Apple Arcade is set to add over a dozen games to the service, including three Final Fantasy games.

Apple Arcade is filled with familiar and classic games, alongside exclusive titles, that you can play for $7 per month ( £7 , AU$10 ). You can find many of these games in the App Store, but they have paywalls and ads that might hinder your gaming experience. Using an Apple Arcade subscription, you can play each game without paywalls and ads, a feature usually denoted by "Plus" in the game's name.

Here are all the games coming to Apple Arcade in December and January.

Arriving on Dec. 5

Talking Tom Blast Park

Developer: Outfit7

The adventurous cat Talking Tom is back, and this time he has to save Blast Park. The mischievous Rakoonz are out to trash the park, so it's up to you and your friends to blast them away with quirky guns - like the Duckinator - to save the day.

Pac-Man 256 Plus

Developer: Bandai Namco and Hipster Whale

Pac-Man is back in this new twist on an old classic. You still have to collect dots while evading ghosts in the familiar maze, but the maze doesn't end. There are also new powerups, new ghosts - named Sue, Funky and Spunky - and a new super villain called the Glitch. Otherwise, you're out to get the highest score possible, just like the old days.
