Apple is wading even deeper into the deep end of gaming.
“We love Sneaky Sasquatch and are excited that the 2-person RAC7 team has joined Apple to continue their work on it with us,” Apple said in a statement to Fortune. “We will continue to deliver a great experience for Apple Arcade players with hundreds of games from many of the best game developers in the world.”
Apple, for years, kept a distance between itself and games, even as electronic entertainment proved to be one of the most popular categories in the app store. In 2019, it launched Apple Arcade, a library of over 200 ad-free games, which currently costs $6.99 per month. Still, though, it steered clear of making the games itself.
Among the launch titles was Sneaky Sasquatch, and the game’s popularity has never wavered. Players play as Bigfoot, tiptoeing around the forest in stealth mode, eventually learning to drive cars, disguise themselves and ski, while avoiding capture.
