Apple Arcade now has over 200 games in its catalog, with more on the way. Since its 2019 launch, the subscription service has found its footing in the mobile gaming world. In April, Apple essentially revamped the service, with categories like Arcade Originals, App Store Greats and Timeless Classics. Though Arcade Originals are games exclusive to the platform, App Store Greats and Timeless Classics include games that are already available in the App Store but remove ads and paywalls and include extra content.
