Apple has announced a major update to the Apple Arcade catalog, adding 20 new games across a multitude of genres.
Debuting in 2019, Apple Arcade is Apple’s all-you-can-play gaming subscription service. It currently hosts more than 200 games that can be played across a variety of Apple platforms, such as iPhone, iPad, and even Apple TV.
Now, 20 new games have been added to the catalog, including mobile ports of popular indie games, new simulator and city builder games, and Disney-branded games geared toward kids.
“Apple Arcade brings together hundreds of fun titles in one gaming destination for our users to discover and enjoy,” said Alex Rofman, Apple’s senior director of Apple Arcade.
“Today’s launch boosts our award-winning catalog with 20 new games people will love playing and sharing with their friends and families.”
