Fruit Ninja Gets Bluey Takeover on Apple Arcade

Now through August 13, the hit Apple Arcade game Fruit Ninja Classic+ has been updated with Bluey-themed wands, powers, dojos, and many other easter eggs for fans of the Australian kids show, which revolves around puppies Bluey and Bingo.

Sticky Gecko Event

July 3 - August 13

Win the Sticky Gecko and Bluey and Bingo's Bedroom Dojo!

Asparagus Event

July 17 - August 13

Win the Asparagus Wand!

Fruit Salad Event

July 31 - August 13

Win Bluey's Kitchen Dojo and Bluey's Backyard Dojo!

"Whether you're playing with Bingo and her Featherwand or helping Bluey catch Sticky Gecko off the ceiling, each event brings plenty of adventures and exclusive rewards for players of all ages to enjoy," said Apple, in an email.

Watch the Fruit Ninja × Bluey trailer below.


If you prefer, you can go to the dojo and equip a blade to revert to the classic Fruit Ninja experience, while the crossover is going on.

Bluey's creator Joe Brumm and Fruit Ninja's developer Halfbrick Studios both hail from Brisbane, so this is an all-Australian collaboration.

I wonder if this was a paid advertisement. It seems like a very esoteric post for MR. Either that, or there’s just nothing else to post about.

Gotta attract a new target: Kids

The headline is words, but they don't seem to make any sense.

Hard to imagine kids coming here much but maybe.
“I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it."

Apple: "We think your kids are gonna love it!"
