APPLE SPECIAL EVENT


Release date
The good news is that it’s available now.

Price
We’ve been worried about Apple being able to compete
with all the subscription services out there, considering
Apple’s association with higher prices. But Apple Arcade
will only cost £4.99 per month, which is reasonable
considering that the service has over 100 mobile games
that are exclusive to Apple.

You’ll get a one-month free trial
Not only is Apple Arcade affordable, but you can also
play it for a month for free. Just keep in mind that your
service will probably end the second you cancel the
free trial, much as with Apple News+. Other companies
are fine with letting you ride out a free trial for its full
duration, but not Apple.

Apple showed off three demos
AppleArcadeis all aboutthe games,of course,so Apple
showedoff demosof AppleArcade‑exclusive games
from three different publishers. First, we got to see
Konami’s Frogger in Toy Town, which is a modern 3D
reimagining of the popular 1981 arcade hit Frogger.
Then Capcom showed off Shinsekai Into the Depths,
which is a simple but beautiful game focused on
underwater exploration. Finally, Apple showed off
AnnapurnaInteractive’sSayonaraWild Hearts,a catchy
pop music‑oriented game that’s also heading to the
Nintendo Switch.
