Apple’s mobile game subscription service Apple Arcade has a new addition called Crossy Road Castle. It is a brand-new endless runner-style game from developer Hipster Whale.

Crossy Road Castle is still an endless runner, but instead of crossing a busy street full of cars, players traversing an endlessly high castle tower full of obstacles and enemies, The Verge reported Thursday.

Recently, Apple revealed “Ultimate Rivals” from Bit Fry Game Studios, a new sports game franchise that brings together athletes across hockey, basketball, football, baseball and soccer into a single officially licensed video game, a first in sports and gaming.

In “Ultimate Rivals: The Rink”, the first title in the franchise, players choose from more than 50 superstar athletes to compete in exciting two-on-two hockey matches.

The game developer built its name creating the Frogger-inspired endless runner Crossy Road back in 2014, which has enjoyed a fair amount of success as both a mobile game and a smart TV one available on Apple’s tvOS platform.

The subscription-based gaming service provides iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac users with access to over 100 games with no in-app purchases or ads for $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year.
