Spidersaurs, Previously Exclusive To Apple Arcade, Will Hit Consoles And PC This Spring

If you’re an Apple Arcade subscriber or were a subscriber anytime after 2019, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of Spidersaurs, or have at least seen it in the service’s lineup.

If you haven’t yet played it there, or have and are looking for a new way to experience it, you’re in luck because Game InformerWe can now exclusively announce that Spidersaurs will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. 

Spidersaurs was inspired by old action games and a bit of Saturday morning cartoons. It is an original game developed by WayForward, who also created Contra 4. It pits you and one other player (if you’d like) against Spidersaurs, which are man-eating mutant spider dinosaurs, as the name implies. They were created originally in a lab as meat, but they have since gone on an offensive against humans and everyone else. 

“[It’s] up to punk rocker Victoria and officer-in-training Adrian to run, jump, climb, and shoot their way through multiple levels of over-the-top, high-octane mayhem,” WayForward writes. “Armed with an assortment of character-specific weapons (including Victoria’s Metal Spread and Electronica Chain, and Adrian’s Flame Thrower and Rebound Breaker) and special Spidersaur powers, players must navigate the INGESTCorp facility and put a stop to the mindless army of genetically engineered monsters.” 

However, Spidersaurs on console and PC isn’t simply a port of the Apple Arcade version first released in 2019. The new version includes a completely new stage, true final boss and ending. There’s also two new difficulty levels and two unlockable modes, Arcade mode or Speedrun. WayForward also claims other adjustments and balance adjustments were made. These include mid-level checkpoints as well as a rebalanced boss or order and visual improvements. If you’re happy playing Spidersaurs on Apple Arcade, don’t fret – it will receive these updates as well. 

Spidersaurs, currently on Apple Arcade, is available for iOS devices. The game will be coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Switch sometime in the spring.
