The push highlights Apple's effort to bolster its gaming catalog with established indie titles rather than exclusive Apple Arcade content, which could broaden the App Store's appeal to core gamers. Offering free trials for several titles suggests Apple is trying to lower the barrier for mobile players to test console-caliber games before buying.
- No Man's Sky arrives on iPhone and iPad Oct. 28 as part of a seven-game indie lineup.
