Additionally, later this month, the service will release significant updates for a number of games, including My Little Pony: Mane Merge, Asphalt 8: Airborne+, Angry Birds Remastered, SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit, Taiko no Tatsujin Pop Tap Beat, and Jetpack Joyride 2.
Following its 2019 launch, Apple Arcade now offers more than 200 games with features like iCloud saves, controller support, no ads, no tracking, and no in-app purchases to subscribers at no additional cost.
How to see the schedule of forthcoming Apple Arcade games
Hit the Arcade tab in the App Store on your device, scroll down, and select the option See All Games to view a list of upcoming Apple Arcade games. Turn on the Coming Soon filter after selecting Filters at the top to restrict the list by release date.
Due to low interaction or contract expirations, Apple may decide to remove tiles from the collection. For two more weeks, removed games can still be found on Arcade.
How to gain free access to Apple Arcade
On your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV, you have access to a growing library of more than 200 games through Apple Arcade. Ads, tracking, and in-app purchases are not present in any of the games that are offered on the service. After a one-month free trial, Apple Arcade has a $5/month price. All subscription bundles for Apple One include the service.
With the purchase of a new iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV, you receive three free months of Apple Arcade. Visit apple.com/apple-arcade for more information about Apple Arcade.
Apple Arcade is not a game streaming service like Xbox Cloud Gaming from Microsoft. Instead, each title must be downloaded in order to be run locally on your device.
The newest Sony and Microsoft controllers, as well as Nintendo’s Joy-Con and Switch Pro, 8BitDo joypads, and other MFi-certified controllers like SteelSeries’ Nimbus and Stratus, are all supported by a number of Apple Arcade games.
