Apple plans to launch a monthly subscription service for games like Netflix, according to a new report from Cheddar citing five anonymous sources that Apple is in talks with developers to be part of the new subscription service.
The move to create a subscription service for games comes at a time when Apple is facing pressure to develop its business in services with a slowdown in the sales of its main product of phones for iPhone
The company has a track record, and strong gaming revenue from the App Store seems to have inspired Apple to develop a game-sharing service, a move that could rival competing gaming platforms and competitors.
Users, like Netflix, pay specific monthly fees for unlimited access to a selection of games, and the report did not elaborate on pricing or availability.
The gaming range is supposed to work on various iOS devices such as iPhones, iPads, and iPod touch. The MacOS and TVOS gaming libraries are relatively small and fragmented
According to the report, the talks included Apple's role as a publisher of games and marketing and related responsibilities in order to facilitate the introduction of the service, which would make them talk about a more practical approach in the issuance of new games.
This role may also allow more games for Apple TV devices powered by the TVOS operating system, or Mac Macs that are powered by the future version of the MacOS operating system.
Sony offers a similar service in the world of gaming platforms called PlayStation Now with access to 700 games for $ 20 a month, while the new Xbox Game Pass from Microsoft has a library of alternating a game of 100 games for $ 10 per month.
Electronic Arts, HTC and NVIDIA have similar options for computer games, while Amazon and Google are said to be working on solutions for broadcast funds.
The CPUs and Type A graphics units found on iPads and iPhones are more capable of competing with home gaming devices such as the Nintendo Switch.
The Cheddar report says Apple's service has been under discussion since the second half of 2018, but is still at an early stage of development, and Apple may eventually decide to abandon it, although the mobile gaming industry is expected to make $ 100 billion In 2021
