Hello everyone, and welcome to the week! It’s time once again for our look back at the noteworthy updates of the last seven days. We’re rolling into a season with plenty of holidays and events that are popular with mobile game updates. Lunar New Year, Valentine’s, the Super Bowl, and general spring seasonal events are in the air. Not all of today’s featured games are connected with those events, but a lot of them are. Of course, you can keep an eye out for updates yourself using AppShopper or by participating in the TouchArcade forums. This weekly summary is just here to fill you in on the things you might have missed. Let’s go for it!

Subway Surfers, Free

Subway Surfers subverts expectations yet again. You might traditionally think of journeys as going in a westward direction. But not this time, friends. This time it’s a Journey to the East! There are no Monkeys to be found here, but you can celebrate the Lunar New Year with new characters Rat and Ox. They look pretty cool, actually. Travel decorated streets and gorgeous temples on some new mythical boards, and win special rewards by collecting tokens. There will also be some sales to go along with the event for those who want to splash out some green.
Mortal Kombat, Free

Mortal Kombat gets a lot more Noob-friendly with its latest update… Noob Saibot, that is! Sorry. Sorry, I’m trying to delete it. Anyway, this update adds Gold...
