‘Unpacking’ Makes Its Way to Mobile Devices Later This Year
Following its initial release on PC in the autumn of 2021, the highly acclaimed game ‘Unpacking’ is finally expanding its reach to mobile devices. Witch Beam Games, the developer of the game, announced during the Wholesome Direct showcase that they plan to launch ‘Unpacking’ on phones and tablets later this year. While the exact release date for the mobile version was not disclosed, it appears that Apple devices will be among the supported platforms, as indicated by the shared trailer.
This announcement comes in the wake of an incident involving ‘Unpacking Master,’ an almost identical copy of the game that emerged on the App Store last year. ‘Unpacking Master’ gained considerable popularity and briefly dominated the charts before Apple removed it due to its use of ads and in-app microtransactions. This incident shed light on the challenges faced by small studios in protecting their original creations from copycat developers.
For those eager to experience ‘Unpacking,’ the game is currently available on various platforms, including Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation.
