Ready or not, the next generation of video games is slowly but surely becoming a reality. Just a week after Google unveiled its Stadia streaming platform, Apple came out of the gate swinging by announcing Apple Arcade. Apple Arcade will be a curated store of new and exclusive games, playable only on Apple platforms like iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV. It will also be a subscription-based model, wherein players pay one regular fee and have access to all of Arcade’s games.
For all the information Apple unleashed on March 25 (and it was definitely more than Google disclosed the week before), the tech giant still left many questions unanswered.
