Apple Unveils Unified Games App at WWDC 2025

At WWDC 2025, Apple introduced a new 'Games' app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV to unify gaming experiences and replace Game Center. The app brings together App Store games, Apple Arcade, Game Center features, and social tools like leaderboards and achievements. It includes the 'Play Together' tab for viewing friends' activity, inviting friends to games, and issuing Challenges that turn single-player games into friendly competitions. A Library feature tracks all downloaded games, while personalized recommendations and event highlights aim to improve discovery. Apple has also acquired its first game studio and is expanding support for AAA titles such as Resident Evil and Assassin’s Creed. The Games app will be preinstalled with iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe later this year.
