Apple did not announce any new gesture recognizer for this new gesture, but you can implement it by yourself.

To do it you can use the GameController SDK that will allow you to get the absolute location of the user finger in the digitizer. Once you have the coordinates of the gesture location you can apply some trigonometry maths to detect if they are rotating the finger clockwise or anticlockwise.
