'Butter Royale' Debuts on Apple Arcade as Family-Friendly Take on Fortnite
Butter Royale has landed on the App Store as this week's addition to Apple Arcade across the iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac. The battle royale game is essentially a family-friendly version of Fortnite, replacing assault rifles and rocket launchers with sauce-shooting, baguette-blasting modified kitchen tools as weapons.
The game has both a 32-player online mode against live players and a single-player offline mode against bots, and the goal is to be the last person standing. The fast-paced food fights take less than five minutes.
Butter Royale is safe for kids aged 9+ to play without parental supervision, according to its Singapore-based developer Mighty Bear Games. As with all other Apple Arcade games, there are no ads, in-app purchases, or loot boxes, and unlike Fortnite for iOS, there is no option to enable voice chat.
From the App Store description:
In a recent press release, Apple promised that its Arcade service will receive new games and expansions every month.

Kinda seems like...
As in:
Dude1:"Greetings and salutations Cornelius. By chance have you heard of the new game Butter Royale? I wonder how it plays."
Dude2:"Ahoy hoy Archibald. Fortuitous circumstance finds me with such knowledge. I happen to be a member of a club of select few gentlemen who partake in the Apple Arcade. Butter Royale is our latest fare, so think Fortnite, but with armaments of food instead of armaments of, well arms."
Dude1: "Arms?!?! My word! I can't imagine flailing bodily appendages hither and yon."
Dude2: "Tut tut old boy. Not arms and legs. No, good sir. Arms as in straps, burners, heaters, iron, gats, shotties, ninas, roscoes, tommies, choppers, whole nine yards, and ma deuces and such. Ya feel me?
Dude1: "Cool, cool." :)
This is what you would call a Fortnite clone? Uh... I don't think so. This game features Battle Royale mode, but looks nothing like a game of Fortnite.
This. Looks like they’re(macrumors or the Dev) just using the Fortnite brand for clicks/attention.

Apple Arcade is still not available in China and Hong Kong. Which is strange because Hong Kong's App Store has absolutely nothing to do with China's App Store.

The lack of the voice chat might put some Fortnite players off. But it sounds like a nice amusing offering in its own right.

Apple Arcade desperately needs more "true" multiplayer games like this. Most of the games listed as multiplayer are only multiplayer if someone is sitting there playing next to you.
