2025’s most downloaded game, Block Blast!, is going ad-free on Apple Arcade
Block Blast!, the most downloaded mobile game of 2025, is coming to Apple Arcade in September, where it will be ad-free.
Apple Arcade has added Block Blast!+, an ad-free version of the popular puzzle game, to its subscription service. The game, which has around 725 million lifetime installs, will be released on September 3 alongside other App Store Award winners. Despite its developer reporting high engagement in early 2026, recent data suggests downloads may have plateaued.
Block Blast! fans will appreciate the ad-free experience, eliminating the annoyance of ads appearing after every loss. The service costs $6.99 per month for access to over 200 games, or can be bundled with Apple One plans starting at $19.95 per month.
