While details were sparse, Apple showed a few screens of the games on a virtual version of the iPhone 15 Pro during today's event, stopping short of showing gameplay of these games running on the newly announced phones. It's unclear what the gameplay experiences for these games will be like on the iPhone 15 Pro and Max; considering it's already possible to connect a Bluetooth controller, like the PlayStation DualSense or Xbox Series X/S gamepad, to various Apple devices, it's not a stretch to assume that’s the best way to play these games on this new device.

As for how these games run on the devices, that remains to be seen. Apple says both Resident Evil games and Death Stranding will be available on the phones later this year, while Assassin's Creed Mirage hits the devices in the first half of 2024, according to IGN.

This seems like such a small market to me...

Who wants to play these games, hasn’t, doesn’t have access to another console/pc, has a wireless controller, has enough time to actually sit down and play these on their phone, and has their power cord on them (because you know these games will eat that battery alive)?

Maybe this is all setting up to allow iPhones to AirPlay games to an appletv or something.

What other mobile console do these run on? Steam Deck? This will target more casual gamers in a device they already own while steam deck is more for enthusiasts.

I think I’m questioning the size of the market for people who want to play these games on mobile in the first place.

How many casual gamers have a controller adapter for their phone, etc?

Maybe I just lack vision.
