    Apple Arcade’s lineup for September gets cozy.

    Another month, another batch of mobile games dropping for Apple Arcade subscribers. This time the spotlight title is Japanese Rural Life Adventure (September 15th), a life sim game that looks a bit like Stardew Valley, but with a focus on traditional Japanese festivals.

    Also coming are My Talking Angela 2+ (September 8th), Junkworld (September 22nd), Cypher 007 (September 29th), and a big Halloween update for Hello Kitty Island Adventure (also the 29th). Check out all the details right here.

    Starfield has some very fun fake brands.

    As you wander around the various planets and cities across the galaxy in the game, you’ll come across all kinds of extremely fun made-up businesses. My favorites have to do with food, like a fast food chain called Chunks where everything (even wine) comes in cube form and you can slather meals with “sauce.” I’m also just glad to know I’ll still be able to get a Tim Horton’s double double in the distant future.

    The latest release from Bethesda is reminiscent of games like Fallout and Skyrim, but with a new level of wonder and adventure — and a whole lot of polish.

    It’s (almost) Mario time.

    At 10AM ET Nintendo is going to be showing off some more of its big holiday release, Super Mario Bros. Wonder. You can watch along at the embed below. Maybe we’ll end up hearing the iconic plumber’s new voice.

    And then there were 20.

    The roster of fighters in the excellent Street Fighter 6 continues to grow, with the addition of A.K.I next month, bringing the game to an even 20 combatants. She looks terrifying, like a poisonous Wolverine, and I can’t wait to see her storyline in the game’s campaign mode. She’ll be dropping in-game on September 27th.
