A few days ago, we echoed a news item, in which it was pointed out that Apple's budget for its game subscription service was about $ 500 million. If we take into account, that as announced by the company it will be composed of approximately 100 games at the time of its launch, each game slope an average of $ 5 million.
All games that are available through Apple Arcade, not only will they be free of advertising and in-app purchases, but they will also be exclusive to this service, so we will not be able to buy them in the App Store. They will also not be available on Android. That if, after a short time of exclusivity, the studies will be able to take them to Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch.
This information comes from various sources related to the game development for the Apple platform. If Apple had wanted these games to be completely exclusive to its platform, the final amount of its investment would have been much higher, since I highly doubt that the studios were willing to give up offering their titles on other platforms such as consoles.
Disney, Sega, Lego, Cartoon Network and Konami They are some of the greats that will be available on this platform, but not the only ones, since during the presentation, Apple placed special emphasis on independent studios such as Snowman, Annapurna Interactive, WayForward and Klei Entertainment.
In the absence of knowing the price of this service, Apple announced that it will be officially launched in the fall of this year and will be available in more than 150 countries. In addition, it will be compatible with both the iPhone, the iPad, Apple TV and even the Mac and an internet connection will not be necessary to be able to enjoy this catalog.
Do you think this new Apple game subscription system will be successful? Leave your opinion in the comments.
