Crossy Road Castle from Hipster Whale is the latest Apple Arcade exclusive

Crossy Road Castle finally sneaks its way onto Apple Arcade after first being announced back in fall of last year. 

If you've been waiting for it, you can breathe a sigh of relief, as the game is now available for your iOS gaming pleasure. All you need to do is have your Apple Arcade subscription locked, loaded, and ready to go. If you are interested in unlocking all of the characters in Crossy Road, we got you covered!

The name of the game in Crossy Road Castle is simple: try to reach the top of the tower, and battle with your friends along the way. The game can be played solo, but it is specially designed for co-op multiplayer action.

Similar to Celeste, you'll spend your time attempting to reach the peak of a seemingly neverending world while collecting strawberries along the way. In Crossy Road Castle, however, you can grab up many different things as you and three other friends attempt the climb. 

You can, for example, nab yourself a Crossy Chicken and even some fun hats to wear. This alone may be worth the climb. After all, what better way to show off your personality than with digital cosmetics?

However, it's not just about climbing to the top. You'll also have to deal with a mean eagle who'd love nothing more than to give you the old one-two. 

Now you know why the game puts such an emphasis on multiplayer co-operation. You can deal with that eagle together, but if you're rolling solo then go get em', tiger.

One of the best things about the game is that each tower is randomly generated. So you'll be in for a fresh experience every time you fire up Crossy Road Castle. 

And yes, after each climb, you'll need to handle that pesky eagle. Take him down and move on to your next castle adventure. 

As mentioned, Crossy Castle Road is available on the App Store, but you'll need an Apple Arcade subscription to play it. If you haven't tried Apple Arcade, then you can take advantage of a free trial to see if you like it or not.
