But since iOS 13 officially launched as well, you’re better off just updating to the latest iOS version (provided your device supports it). In terms of the games themselves, Apple Arcade will feature games from companies such as Cartoon Network, Konami, Lego, Sega, and a few others. Apple would also be getting into the game developmen­t business and contribute to the developmen­t cost of games that are coming to Apple Arcade.

Google Stadia vs Apple Arcade: Which one should I pick?

Well, that’s not a decision for us to make. Each service has its pros and cons. For example, while Google Stadia can run on pretty much anything that has an internet connection and Google

Chrome browser, it also requires you to pay for both the subscripti­on as well as the price of the individual game itself. On the other hand, while Apple Arcade is just $4.99 per month it has 100 exclusive games to start.

But Google Stadia, on the other hand, promises both a mix of exclusive titles as well as general games too. Then there’s also the fact that you need an Apple device for Apple Arcade whereas Google Stadia can run on just about anything.

So all in all, both Apple Arcade and Google Stadia give us new ways to kick back and enjoy some games with friends and family. As for how well each service performs, well, we’ll just have to wait and see. Apple Arcade launched in September, whereas Google Stadia launches in November for the Founders Edition and 2020 for the free edition.
