While tech titan Apple is most recognized for its lines of smart phones, tablets, and laptops, the technology firm is also pursuing gaming in a different approach. Although taking notes from Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass, Apple’s self-named Apple Arcade is a monthly subscription service that welcomes a bevy of impressive releases for users on all iOS devices. While still in its infancy, Apple Arcade is planning to compete big.
In a previous report, Bloomberg was tipped that Apple’s previous plans for Apple Arcade were abruptly cut to focus on drive for more users to the platform. Although given the large number of users with an Apple-branded device, concurrent subscriptions are not complementing those counts.
Now what appears to be the result of this decision is the recent influx of titles that were announced for Apple Arcade this past week. You can read the full list below:
