Up until this point in Apple’s beta versions of the upcoming iOS 13 launch, their new Apple Arcade service has its very own tab in the App Store but it’s only been a placeholder page thus far. That appears to be changing today with the service going live in the latest version of the iOS 13 beta for a number of users. I’m not currently running the beta of iOS 13 so, in light of this news, I’ll need to spend the rest of my day fiddling around with getting that working, because I’m too impatient to wait until iOS 13’s official launch this Thursday. With Apple Arcade starting to be out in the wild, that also means we have a glimpse at the titles that should be available with the official launch later this week, as noted by our sister site Macrumors.

So ever since Apple Arcade’s initial unveiling back in March, Apple has stated that the service will feature more than 100 games as part of a paying subscription. What we weren’t sure of until now is if all 100 or so of those games would be available right away or not, and it appears that in reality roughly half of them will be there on day one. Apple has also said new games will make their way into Apple Arcade on a weekly basis, so we’ll probably be hitting that 100 mark and beyond before too long anyway. At the very least there is NO shortage of awesome stuff to play on day one, so if you’re on the iOS 13 beta bandwagon definitely sign up for the free one month trial to check it all out, and if not be sure to update to iOS 13 when it officially launches on Thursday to see what Apple Arcade has to offer.
