According to Apple, new ‌Apple Arcade‌ games will be added to the service on a weekly basis, so there are plenty of additional games that will be coming soon.

The ‌Apple Arcade‌ interface is like a mini App Store itself, with various game categories, gaming tips, and more.


Of the above list, Apple is highlighting many of the games in different categories like "Start Your Adventure," "New Arrivals," "You Have to Hear This," "No Time to Blink," and more.

Ahead of ‌Apple Arcade‌'s debut, Apple has taken a deeper glimpse into some of the games that are coming, including developer commentary and gameplay details in an Apple Newsroom article. Games covered include The Enchanted World, Patterned, Overland, and Card of Darkness.

‌Apple Arcade‌ is set to launch officially on Thursday, September 19, right alongside the rollout of iOS 13. The service is $4.99 per month for the entire family, with a free one-month trial available.

None of these games are system sellers.


They don't have to sell a system, just a $5 subscription.

I thought Skyrim looked boring when it came out. It became quite a hit. Minecraft looks more boring than any of these games to me, but it's doing alright. Didn't you ever learn not to judge a book by its cover? Also, hard-core gamers are not the target market here. $5/mo for the whole family is a steal if you have kids.

All I want is a simulation style online racing game.

Real racing 3 is an ideal phone game but the number of restrictions funnelling you towards spending money feels oppressive. The actual transaction costs feel even worse. I despise the economics.

This is perfect for my family - I'll instruct my two boys to simply go to the Arcade and have a party - no need to worry about ads, IAP and other garbage.

I'd like to see plenty of the classic arcade games from the 80's and early 90's. These should not be hard to port as they can be done through an emulator.

I would say, if you also mentioned the category of the game, it would be very helpful. I am looking for strategy games on Apple Arcade and no way to search and find them.

I’ll definitely give it a go. £4.99 a month and it can be used on the Apple TV, iPhone iPad and MacBook. Maybe my nimbus controller is finally going to get some action.

Meet the Apple Pippin, only in pure-digital form.



I must say, though.... having separate "Games" and "Arcade" options along the bottom of the App Store is a bit confusing. I know the difference, but not everyone will.
