Apple Arcade’s November lineup is set to bring some major additions, headlined by Football Manager 26 Touch, which launches on November 4. Developed by Sports Interactive and SEGA, the latest entry in the long-running management franchise introduces several firsts for the series — including the debut of women’s football and official Premier League licensing — alongside an upgraded graphics engine that enhances animation, player detail, and overall presentation.
Described as the most immersive edition yet, Football Manager 26 Touch focuses on the tactical, emotional, and strategic depth of managing a football club. Players can handle everything from scouting new talent to negotiating transfers, adjusting lineups, and making the crucial match-day decisions that define championship runs. The new user interface, optimized for Apple devices, promises smoother control and a more intuitive experience across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Vision Pro.
“We’re delighted to be bringing FM26 Touch back to Apple Arcade for the start of this new era for Football Manager,” said Miles Jacobson, studio director at Sports Interactive. “The reimagined user interface will really enhance the experience across Apple devices. In addition, the arrival of the Premier League fully licensed and the introduction of women’s football will further deepen exploration for Arcade players.”
The new release joins recent sports hits on the platform such as NBA 2K26 Arcade Edition and NFL Retro Bowl ’26, rounding out Apple Arcade’s growing lineup of sports-focused titles.
Alongside Football Manager 26 Touch, Apple Arcade will also add two MySims games — MySims and MySims Kingdom— from Maxis Studios, offering a lighter, more creative experience built around exploration and customization. Rounding out the November releases is Toca Boca Jr Classics, a collection of beloved games from Toca Boca and Sago Mini aimed at younger audiences, arriving on November 6.
Apple Arcade remains priced at AED 27.99 per month, with a one-month free trial available to new subscribers. Customers who buy a new iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV continue to receive three months of Apple Arcade at no extra cost. The service is also included within Apple One plans, starting at AED 49.95 for individuals, AED 62.95 for families, and AED 97.95 for the Premier tier.
With more than 200 titles now available across its library, Apple Arcade continues to expand its selection of high-quality games without ads or in-app purchases. The arrival of Football Manager 26 Touch — complete with major licensing and gameplay improvements — reinforces Apple’s push to make its subscription platform a home for both casual and dedicated players.
