Overview & Key Takeaways

Last year, one of the upcoming games that really caught our eye was Gaucho and the Grassland.

Now, fans on mobile will soon be able to get their hands on it! Yes, as Gaucho and the Grassland celebrates its first anniversary, we've also finally gotten an update on its mobile port, which is first coming to Android later in 2026! Even better, this mobile adaptation will also feature an entirely original prequel story exclusive to the handheld versions! ... [MORE]

Yes, as Gaucho and the Grassland celebrates its first anniversary, we've also finally gotten an update on its mobile port, which is first coming to Android later in 2026! Even better, this mobile adaptation will also feature an entirely original prequel story exclusive to the handheld versions!

Viva Brazil!

Now, I'm not entirely sure whether that means the prequel story will be the entire setting of the game itself, or whether it'll merely take place before we get into the rest of the game. I think that either way, it's quite a welcome selling point that this isn't just a mobile port, but also has exclusive content.

As for the setting? Well, as you know, I visited Gamescom LatAm earlier this year, and although I was in Sao Paulo, which didn't offer much of a chance to see the countryside, I was quite pleased with the climate and landscape I did get to see.

Long story short, by combining that agrarian ranchhand lifestyle with the colourful setting, as well as everything from mining to farming to customising your own cabin, meaning that Gaucho and the Grassland will likely have a pretty hefty amount of content to dig into! So Viva Brazil and keep your eyes peeled for more news on Gaucho!

If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle of urban life in favour of that agrarian ideal, then you can't get much better than the genre-defining life sim Stardew Valley. But we've also collated a list of the best mobile games like Stardew Valley to give you even more options to play!

That’s My Balloon! turns balloon popping into an iOS score chase📱 Mobile

That’s My Balloon! turns balloon popping into an iOS score chase

It seems that today has been given over to arcade releases. Frutz had me dodging missiles earlier, and now That’s My Balloon! wants me to spend the evening popping balloons. At least this one does not expect me to inflate them first. Out now on iOS, That’s My Balloon! is a one-tap arcade release built around spotting balloons and bursting them before they float off the screen. You will also need to avoid dangerous surprises that drift across the screen. As rounds continue, balloons become harder to catch, and those hazards start making the one-tap controls considerably less relaxing. ...

Frutz sends you through five arcade worlds in pursuit of perfect runs

It's a brand new week - for some people, that means easing into it, but for others, it means chasing perfect grades while a screen fills with missiles. Frutz has arrived at a useful time. Out now on iOS and Android, Frutz is a retro-inspired side-scrolling arcade shooter that takes you through five cosmic worlds. Lord Zorkannan has handed the five Cosmic Gems to his strongest guardians, which is inconvenient, so you will need to defeat each one before meeting him in the Cosmic Rift. Until then, his guardians are busy filling every planet with enemies and hazards. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/frutz/official-launch/)
