Grand Mountain Adventure on Apple Arcade

Grand Mountain Adventure is now on Apple Arcade.

Apple

Apple Arcade added Grand Mountain Adventure to its catalog of games on Friday. The new title, from Swedish developer Toppluva, immediately sends you sailing down pristine snowy mountainsides. Grand Mountain is also available to download without an Arcade subscription, but you'll encounter in-app purchases.

Take the ski lift up to the top of the slopes and try to beat your best time on the way down, but watch out for obstacles and other skiers. Stay on course, catch a few jumps to save time, earn ski passes to unlock new mountains and find collectibles along the way across seven open-world environments. You can also play with up to 16 friends.

Grand Mountain Adventure's controls and relaxing gameplay will strike a chord for fans of endless runners like Alto's Odyssey and Skate City

Apple Arcade has hundreds of games and is available to try for just $5 a month, or $60 annually. You can also get a free trial if it's your first time signing up, or you recently purchased a new Apple device. To access Arcade, tap the joystick in the menu bar of the App Store.
