App Store Update: September 25

Every day hundreds of new apps make their debut on the App Store, and hundreds more are updated or reduced in price. We have sifted through the noise and highlighted those select few that might be worth your attention.

Game Debuts

FIFA Soccer 13 – ($6.99)

Leading off today's Tuesday update is EA's latest iteration in the FIFA franchise, which arrives in the App Store today boasting improved touch screen controls.

Infectonator – ($0.99)

Based on Armor Games' popular Flash title that lets you take over the planet by willfully infecting the global population with a zombifying virus, Infectonator is made more robust as an iOS app thanks to the addition of new characters.

Price Drops

Fantasy Chronicle – ($0.99)

Kemco's old-school RPG has dropped under a dollar, making it the new best bet for fans of turn-based battles and stylish 16-bit era protagonists.

Pygmies●Hoglet●EX – (Free)

This Tamagotchi-ish game about raising a virtual baby hedgehog has gone free for the first time.

Tone Sphere – (Free)

Also free right now is Tone Sphere, a wild 3D rhythm action game that might just boggle your eyes and ears simultaneously.

Infinite Warrior – (Free)

And Infinite Warrior has completed its drop to the bottom. We first featured this app when it launched at $2.99 earlier this month, then recommended it again when it hit 99 cents roughly a week ago. Now, it's free. No more excuses for anyone who hasn't grabbed it yet:

Sword of Fargoal – (Free)

As sometimes happens, an original has gone free since a sequel's on the way. Grab Sword of Fargoal for no cash now, do some old-school dungeon crawling, and then maybe toss some money toward the developers when Sword of Fargoal 2 launches soon.

Mos Speedrun – (Free)

One of the best platformers available in the App Store, Mos Speedrun is made even better if you have friends to play it too and compete against for high scores. Since it's free, you should be able to make that happen.

Avengers Initiative – ($2.99)

Finally, our last pick for the day coincides with the release of Marvel's The Avengers on DVD and Blu-ray. You can go pick up your disc of choice to own the film, and save four bucks off this tie-in game's asking price. Check out our video review right here:

That's all for today! If you haven't already, consider subscribing to the App Store Update via email. It's extra convenient!
