The last week of October has been unusually generous for mobile players. Pocket Gamer's round-up for 29 October 2026 gathers five fresh releases worth a download, spanning arcade chaos, anime cooking, licensed role-playing and a cosy life simulation. If your phone's home screen is feeling stale, this is a good week to refresh it.
The most immediately charming of the bunch is Astro Burn, described by its developers as a cute-em-up. You play a feisty feline travelling through space in retro-inspired arcade chaos, and the game is available on iOS, Android and Steam. It is the kind of title that understands mobile sessions: short bursts, bright visuals, and a hook that is easy to grasp but hard to put down.

BLEACH Mirrors High Is Out on Mobile: A Fresh Anime Action Game to Try This Week
Anime fans get two very different treats. One Piece: Grand Gourmet puts you to work as a new staff member at the Baratie, the floating restaurant from the series, where gathering ingredients is only the first step before cooking up a storm. Bleach Mirrors High, meanwhile, is an officially licensed role-playing game with a new story set after the Thousand-Year Blood War, mixing familiar faces with fresh characters for players who know the world and those meeting it for the first time.
The week's quieter gem is Kettle Street: Cosy Life Sim, available on Android, which trades combat for calm. Cosy games live or die on atmosphere, and a life simulation that lets players settle into a routine at their own pace is a welcome contrast to the week's louder releases. It is also a reminder that mobile gaming in 2026 is not only about competition and leaderboards; sometimes the best new game is the one that helps you unwind.
Taken together, the five picks show how broad mobile gaming has become. A cat in space, a pirate kitchen, a Soul Reaper saga and a cosy street can all sit side by side in the same weekly list, and each finds its audience. Try one that matches your mood, and you may find that the smallest download of the week becomes the game you return to most.
