New Mobile Games Are Being Made On a Constant Basis
Mobile gaming is big business. As a result, there are new mobile games being made on a constant basis. Sometimes, these are multi-platform titles that are also available for mobile devices. Other times, some are meant for mobile devices and only mobile devices. Whatever the case, some of these upcoming games are more promising than others, meaning that you might want to keep a watchful eye on them.
What Are Three of the Best Upcoming Mobile Games in 2021?
Here are some of the newest games that people should be paying attention to:
Apex Legends
Apex Legends is a hero shooter that came out for the PC, the PS4, and the Xbox One in 2019. Since that time, it has received a Nintendo Switch release in 2021, which is expected to be followed up by both Android and iOS releases in 2022. As such, it has been a long wait for the mobile versions, but those promise to be worthwhile because they are being made for mobile devices from the ground-up.
Those who are curious should know that Apex Legends is a battle royale for the most part. This means that you will be dropped into each match in teams of three. After which, you will be expected to eliminate every other team within an ever-shrinking combat environment. Hero shooter means that each playable character is unique, so using their chosen character’s strengths to cover up for their teammates’ weaknesses is a critical component of success. Perhaps unsurprisingly, teamwork matters in a team-based game.
Clash Heroes
Supercell is one of the most successful mobile game companies that can be found out there. Even if you don’t recognize their name, chances are good that you will recognize one of their titles. After all, Supercell’s successes include but are not limited to Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, and Brawl Stars. As such, it makes sense for it to follow-up on those successes by releasing further related titles.
On April 2 of 2021, Supercell announced that it would be releasing not one, not two, but three games set in the Clash setting. First, there is Clash Quest, a turn-based strategy game. Second, there is Clash Mini, an in-setting board game with a resemblance to auto-battlers. Third, there is Clash Heroes, a co-op-based action RPG. So far, Clash Quest has already been released in a number of countries. Meanwhile, the other two titles are further out on the horizon. Still, Supercell has earned an excellent reputation when it comes to mobile gaming, so if you have any interest in those genres, it might be a good idea to pay attention to further news about its newest games.
Pokemon Unite
Traditionally speaking, Nintendo has been very cautious about letting any of its properties show up on non-Nintendo platforms. However, the modern company is a bit more relaxed about this, as shown by its sustained push into the mobile gaming market. Some of its efforts have been lackluster. In contrast, others have been much more impressive. By all indications, Pokemon Unite is looking like one of the upcoming games gathering a lot of buzz.
Those who are curious should know that Pokemon Unite is a MOBA developed by TiMi Studio Group. This means that players will be facing off against one another in teams of characters with distinctive capabilities that will be upgraded over the course of a match. Something that is well-suited for the Pokemon setting because of the latter’s emphasis on Pokemon evolutions.
Speaking of which, Pokemon Unite already has 20 playable characters for its initial roster, which are divided up into the five roles of Attacker, Defender, All-Rounder, Speedster, and Support. However, it isn’t hard to see how that roster could be expanded in the future, seeing as how the Pokemon franchise has 898 Pokemon species at this point in time. Of course, Pokemon Unite also works out well because of its solid mechanics, which are simple but also more accessible to players because of that. As such, you might want to check in when the mobile versions become available on September 22 of 2021.
