Antstream Arcade launches on Apple devices in a week.

Antstream Arcade, a retro-focused game streaming service, is set to launch on iPhone and iPad on June 27th, marking a significant milestone as the first third-party game streaming app to be offered natively on Apple devices. This development comes after Apple relaxed its App Store restrictions in response to European law, allowing Antstream Arcade to bring over 1,300 games from old consoles such as Atari, Sega, and Nintendo to Apple users.

Some notable titles available on Antstream Arcade include Asteroids, Centipede, Sam & Max Hit the Road, The Secret of Monkey Island, Super Star Wars, and Worms. The wide selection of games is organized by platform, providing users with a nostalgic gaming experience on their Apple devices. It is worth mentioning that Apple began allowing emulators on its storefront earlier this year, enabling users to play retro games for free, albeit without access to licensed games like those offered by Antstream Arcade.

Antstream Arcade features legally licensed titles directly within its app, providing users with a convenient and authentic retro gaming experience. The service is available for $42.99/year in Canada and can also be accessed on Xbox consoles, Android devices, Samsung TVs, and more. With the launch of Antstream Arcade on Apple devices, retro gaming enthusiasts can enjoy a vast library of classic games on their iPhones and iPads.
