The Pathless makes its way back to iOS via a standalone App Store release

Feb 22,25

The Pathless, previously an Apple Arcade and console exclusive, returns to iOS as a standalone mobile release! This action-adventure game, celebrated for its expansive world and precise archery combat, is now accessible without a subscription.

This minimalist title, from the creators of Abzû, features a nameless hunter tasked with lifting a curse from a vast island using mystical abilities and a bow and arrow. We highly recommend it (for three reasons we previously detailed!). Its return as a standalone release is fantastic news for iOS gamers.

Initially intended as a console exclusive, its Apple Arcade debut generated enough interest to warrant this standalone mobile release.
