- Apple can develop a dedicated application for iOS, macOS and more
- The application will contain such things as achievements, leaders and messages boards
- This can be announced at WWDC in June
For years, Apple has been trying to convince the world that it seriously treats games, and the popularity of iOS games and the appearance of AAA titles such as Cyberpunk 2077 There is a truth on MacOS in the company’s claim.
In case you need more convincing, there is a novel rumor Bloomberg Mark Gurman reporter The fact that Apple will soon launch a dedicated application for iOS 19 games to raise players to its platforms. As an ownership player Mac, I am carefully hopeful about rumors-if we still need more affordable equipment and games before he is close to being a competitor of Windows.
This movement makes sense – after all, the iPhone is a phenomenally popular platform for gaming, and announcing such a movement on WWDC can lend a hand strengthen the popularity of iOS 19 before it levels to the door. Apple can also hope that more players tempt to change from Windows to the Cupertino platform – but at this point I am not entirely convinced.
Place of choice for players
This application can work well in iOS 19, where games are slightly more free than on desktop computers. But matters may look completely different on MacOS.
As a player who is also the owner of a Mac, in the last few years I have been encouraged to the progress of Apple in the game world. It is not yet close to the parity of Windows, but today’s situation is much better than a few years ago.
For a long time the problem was the nature of Mac games with chicken. Players did not want to go to MacOS because of the lack of games, and developers did not want to bring games to Mac because of the lack of players. It slowly begins to change, with great titles such as Cyberpunk 2077IN Assassin’s Creed ShadowsAND Baldur gate 3 Helping to dispel the idea that Mac is a wasteland.
However, the impact of a dedicated game application will probably be constrained. In addition to my claim that players care more about equipment and availability of games than program applications, Gurman is also skeptical, saying that “software testers say that they probably will not change the perception of players and creators of high -class titles.”
All advances for the game on Apple platforms are welcome in my eyes, and this application can lend a hand by increasing the game among iOS and macOS users. But what is really needed-at least on Mac-is a larger number of attracting attention titles and more accessible access to components that offer unique results in games.
Until this happens, Windows will always be the purpose of choosing for players.
