# Apple Arcade adds Football Manager 27 Touch and four more holiday titles

*Football Manager 27 Touch lands today, with Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown+ and two more coming 3 December.*

**Key points**

- Apple Arcade launched Football Manager 27 Touch on 10 November 2026 with a redesigned iPhone interface and new Match Engine.
- On 3 December, Apple Arcade adds Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted, solitaire(ish), Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown+ with all DLC, and LEGO DUPLO Playtime.
- Apple Arcade costs $6.99 (U.S. excludes tax) or £6.99 (UK inc. 20 per cent VAT) per month, with a one-month free trial and three months free for new device purchasers.

[Apple Newsroom announced](https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2026/11/football-manager-and-other-hit-franchises-headline-apple-arcades-holiday-lineup/) on Tuesday that Football Manager 27 Touch is now on Apple Arcade and that four more titles (Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted, solitaire(ish), Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown+ and LEGO DUPLO Playtime) will follow on 3 December.

Football Manager 27 Touch arrives with a redesigned iPhone interface, a new Match Engine, and upgraded Recruitment and Match Preparation tools. Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted adds new levels, local co-op and same-device PvP, plus an Arcade-exclusive Party mode. Solitaire(ish), from the studio behind Balatro, is a roguelike variant with over 150 special cards, daily streaks and leaderboards. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown+ includes all previously released DLC, new challenges and cosmetic updates. LEGO DUPLO Playtime is an open-ended digital playset for young children built around DUPLO bricks.

Apple Arcade costs $6.99 (U.S., excludes sales tax) per month or £6.99 (UK, includes 20 per cent VAT). Canadian subscribers pay CAD$8.99 (excluding tax); euro-zone customers pay 6,99 Euro (includes VAT). A one-month free trial is available, and new device buyers get three months free. The service is also part of Apple One bundles: Individual ($21.95/£18.95), Family ($27.95/£24.95) and Premier ($39.95/£36.95), each with a one-month trial. One subscription covers up to six family members. Arcade Originals run on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Vision Pro, while App Store Greats work on iPhone, iPad and Apple Vision Pro.

## Why it matters

Apple Arcade’s holiday push relies on established franchises (Football Manager, Plants vs. Zombies and Prince of Persia) plus the roguelike novelty of solitaire(ish). In our view, the lineup signals that Apple is betting on recognisable brands to drive subscriber growth during the gift-buying season, rather than depending solely on smaller original titles. Earlier this year, Apple promoted [indie games with a week-long event](https://mactoreality.com/no-mans-sky-mobile-debut-leads-apples-week-long-indie-games-event), but the holiday slate is firmly aimed at mass-market appeal.
