Several other titles also joined Apple’s gaming service, including a remodeled version of the original Final Fantasy.
Skate City: New York, created by Snowman and Agens, offers the entire trick list from previous Skate City titles, plus abilities including wall rides, boardslides, lipslides, tap grinds, late tricks and more.

And it’s not the only option from the series on Apple’s service. In December, Apple Arcade introduced Final Fantasy IV (3D Remake)+. This modernized version enhances graphics, refines gameplay mechanics and includes newly recorded voice acting for story sequences. (Another installment in the long-running game franchise, Final Fantasy IV: The After Years+, also hit Apple Arcade in December.)
Looking ahead, February 6 will bring PGA Tour Pro Golf, which will feature iconic locations like Pebble Beach Golf Links and Harbour Town Golf Links. Players can participate in head-to-head matches and tournaments against other players or play practice rounds.
Rather than paying individually for games or enduring nagging to make in-app purchases in “free” games, Apple Arcade offers more than 200 choices for a single .99-per-month fee.

Final Fantasy+ joins Apple Arcade

It’s a must for fans of New York City, as play moves between boroughs, subway tunnels and waterfronts. But don’t expect to memorize the routes — each run is a fresh experience, because the game generates new locations every time.
In addition, Friday brought Three Kingdoms Heroes, the latest in Koei Tecmo’s hit Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, to Apple Arcade. Also new to the gaming service are Wild West adventure Rodeo Stampede+ and the casual zen experience of It’s Literally Just Mowing+.

More new Apple Arcade games

Skate City: New York is ready to download and play now from the Apple Arcade section of the App Store. It is playable on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV, and supports external game controllers on any of these platforms.
Final Fantasy+ is a remastered 2D take on the original game in the world-renowned series, now on Apple Arcade. You can relive the classic from Square Enix — or experience it for the first time — without needing a retro game emulator.

By

All of these, including Skate City: New York, are available with a subscription to Apple Arcade. There are no other costs — the service bans in-app purchases, ads and loot boxes.

Medellin, Colombia – May 24 – The USA Men’s Cadet National Team suffered their first loss at the Pan Am Aquatics Championship with a 17-11 loss to Canada earlier today. Adin Shin scored four goals and Hunter Coleman added three in the loss. Ethan Wallace recorded 11 saves in cage. Team USA will now meet Colombia for the bronze medal on Sunday at 1pm pacific time. Live streaming is available by visiting PanAmSportsChannel.org with live stats at 6-8Sports.com. 

Canada built an early 2-0 lead in the first but Team USA battled back with two straight, the second from Coleman, to tie the game with 2:25 left in the period. Canada closed the period strong with two straight to go in front 4-2 after the first. Canada kept it rolling in the second, building a 6-2 lead with 2:47 to play. Andrew Schneider and Adin Shin scored two of the next three goals to trail 7-4 at intermission.

Shin scored to start off the third quarter, cutting the deficit to two at 7-5.

That was the margin after three as Canada led 11-8 going to the fourth. Canada wouldn’t let things get any closer in the fourth, outscoring Team USA 6-3 to keep control of the match on the way to a 17-11 win.

Team USA went 2/8 on power plays with no penalties attempted while Canada went 2/8 on power plays and 1/1 on penalties.

GENEVA, Ohio – Macalester College first year Ariella Rogahn-Press (Albuquerque, N.M./Bosque School) placed fourth in the finals of the 400 meters at the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field Championships on Saturday at SPIRE Institute. Rogahn-Press earns All-American honors with her fourth-place finish.

In a tight race, Rogahn-Press held on to fourth with a time of 54.34, .02 behind Marina Miller of MIT and .02 ahead of Sarah Schermerhorn of Hope. Emory’s Eva Charchidi won the race in 53.94, with McKenzie Reser of Augustana (Ill.) taking second with a time of 54.07.

This is the second All-American award this year for Rogahn-Press, who also was an All-American in the 400 indoors with a sixth-place finish at the NCAA Indoor Championships in March. The top eight finishers in each event earn All-American accolades.

The race ends an outstanding debut season for Rogahn-Press. She was named the MIAC Rookie of the Year for both the indoor and outdoor seasons, and currently holds the school records in the 200 and 400 indoors and the 100, 200 and 400 outdoors after just one year at Macalester. In Friday’s prelims, Rogahn-Press broke her own record in the 400 with a time of 53.88, the 11th-fastest time ever run at the Division III level. She is the third Macalester women’s track & field athlete to earn All-American honors both indoors and outdoors in the same season and in the same event, joining Phoebe Aguiar ’19 in the 800 meters (2019) and Mary Schlick ’87 in the 1500 meters (1986 and 1987).
