Apple’s decisions with 32-bit apps and older apps and games in general have shown that the company does not care about preservation. If a developer implements that, it is great, but this is something that shouldn’t be a concern for a paid subscription service.Ī lot of this uncertainty has made me hesitant to invest too much time into Apple Arcade releases unless it is something that is updated often, in which case you know the developers and Apple are working together to keep people playing like with Grindstone, Spire Blast, SP!NG, or Sneaky Sasquatch. With Apple Arcade, the arcade ‘+’ versions of old games or the Apple Arcade Originals that are on other platforms, don’t really have a definite way of getting your save data to another version. When a game leaves Xbox Game Pass, nothing happens to your save data because it works the same in the non Xbox Game Pass version. If the publisher doesn’t deem it worthy to port, said game will not be playable on any platform once it leaves Apple Arcade if there isn’t a standalone mobile version.
FANTASIAN CONSOLE PC
Games like Various Daylife from Square Enix are yet to see console or PC versions.
The worst case scenario is a game just vanishing completely from mobile once it leaves Apple Arcade. Going from Apple Arcade to Google Play Pass would be funny. I don’t really see this happening with many games, but it is a possibility. With a game leaving the service, it might allow it to hit Google Play, which would be good for those who’ve been waiting to play them on non Apple mobile platforms.
So far, none of the Apple Arcade Originals have launched on Android. This might really change some games in unfortunate ways or just result in a game shutting down. In this case, what happens to player save data and will game balance remain the same? Many games have been tweaked in Apple Arcade over the years to bring in more engagement through weekly or timed events versus being one and done games.
FANTASIAN CONSOLE FREE
If a game is staying on mobile after leaving Apple Arcade, does it go premium as a standalone app or become free to play? There are many Apple Arcade Originals that are almost certainly games that were going to be free to play, that got changed to be Apple Arcade Original games. If a game is no longer going to be on mobile following its removal from Apple Arcade, I hope there’s a way to bring over save data to PC at least if it is a multiplatform game since console might be difficult.
FANTASIAN CONSOLE PLUS
As of now, Apple Arcade Originals haven’t been in other game subscription services, but leaving Apple Arcade should open the doors to games hitting the likes of Netflix, Xbox Game Pass, or even PlayStation Plus to ensure the developer can make enough to keep a game updated for modern iOS releases or even bring more content to it. The former has been very popular on console and PC with Netflix Gaming building up a nice library with many games I’m looking forward to soon.
Assuming a game is no longer going to be on mobile once it leaves Apple Arcade, there are other options like launching on subscription services like Xbox Game Pass or Netflix Gaming.
