Apple has revealed more details about its Apple Arcade during the launch of iPhone 11. Apple Arcade is a ‘game subscription service’ that will offer more than 100 games to its subscribers during the launch. Users will be able to enjoy these games on all iOS-based platforms, including iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, and Apple TV.

Apple Arcade will be available on the App Store on Thursday, September 19. The new game subscription service will be launched in more than 150 countries. The Apple Arcade only costs just $4.99; however, the prices are different for other regions of the world. For Indian users, Apple Arcade service will cost INR 99 per month.

Apple Arcade also comes with a one-month free-trial in which players can test out the service before subscribing it. The games that come under Apple Arcade are exclusive, which means users will not find these games on any other platform or subscription service.
