Back in March this year, Apple announced its game streaming platform called Apple Arcade featuring more than 100 games. The new gaming service from Apple was set to launch on September 19th. But it seems that Apple is too confident of its service as Apple Arcade is now live and the company is actively and accepting subscriptions for Apple’s iOS 13 beta program. However, for now, there are only over 50 games available to download across a wide range of categories.
For those who want to get their hands on the beta program, all you need is an iOS 13 or iOS 13.1 beta. Then head to the App Store and tap the “Arcade” tab along the bottom. If you’ve been selected to access Apple Arcade service early, you should see a “Try it free” button. However, it is still unclear if this availability is limited to only beta testers. Furthermore, if you are selected, on tapping “Try it free,” you’ll be directed towards the sign-up process for Apple Arcade, which further includes a 1-month free trial. Apple even offers the feature of Family Sharing subscription which allows others to access the service.
