Apple might be close to launching a dedicated hub for gaming on the Mac, iPhone, and iPad
SMRTR summary
Gamers, get ready to level up your Apple experience. The tech giant is reportedly developing a dedicated gaming hub for iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Apple TVs. Set to launch in September 2025, this new app promises to be a one-stop shop for all things gaming across Apple's ecosystem.
"In-game achievements, leaderboards, communications, and other activity" will find a home in this sleek interface, replacing the long-standing Game Center. But it's not just about social features – the hub aims to showcase Apple Arcade titles alongside editorial content, potentially positioning itself as a Mac-friendly alternative to Steam.
With recent AAA titles like Baldur's Gate 3 and Resident Evil 4 gracing Apple Silicon, this move signals the company's renewed commitment to gaming. As one Apple insider quipped, "The adage that you can game on the Mac has extended to nearly all its other platforms."
