New release roundup: Dunk City Dynasty, Truck Manager 2025, The Masked Singer: Mask Mania, and more

While the deals and the stats of the gaming world are important, nothing would happen without the research, funding and, of course, development that goes into making a great game.

So here’s a collection of the most exciting new mobile games right now, the developers and publishers behind them, and why, exactly, they've made the cut.

Truck Manager 2025

Tycoon-style simulation game Truck Manager 2025 is giving players the chance to live the CEO lifestyle - at least on their mobile devices. From managing a small fleet of vehicles, customising them and tracking their routes around the world, those most strategic of players could well end up with a trucking empire in their hands.

Xombat Development has also infused a competitive edge to the game, encouraging gamers to take control of the highways and aim for the top of the leaderboards.

Tiny Robots: Portal Escape

3D puzzler Tiny Robots: Portal Escape tasks players with following clues, collecting items and ultimately escaping from a colourful room, all whilst solving mechanical puzzles and putting a stop to the bad guys’ plans.

Developer Big Loop Studios has even filled Tiny Robots: Portal Escape with alternate dimensions to explore and an in-game arcade room full of distinct minigames.

Dunk City Dynasty

NetEase Games has soft launched its latest title in Australia and New Zealand, bringing the official NBA and NBPA street basketball mobile game to iOS and Android.

Ahead of the worldwide release later this year, soft launch territories have early access to renowned NBA teams like the Miami Heat and the Los Angeles Lakers. They can arrange a team, control individual players and compete in a 5V5 mode, ranked matches and more.

The Masked Singer: Mask Mania

Leveraging mobile as a means of cross-promotion is nothing new for a number of non-gaming companies, but it is something on the fresher side for US network Fox. With its reality series The Masked Singer returning for its 13th season, The Masked Singer: Mask Mania has launched on mobile as a bubble shooter game to keep fans busy.

Of course, developer Revyrie has scattered Masked Singer logos, masks and items throughout, with a special character set to be unveiled today for Valentine’s Day.

Ten Blitz

Spiel’s match-2 puzzle game Ten Blitz is putting players’ maths skills to the test, tasking them with matching two numbers diagonally or horizontally to the value of 10.

Players can also cross out duplicate numbers nearby and match away towards a designated goal for each level, and use power-ups to their advantage across the over 100 stages already available.
