Pips and Pixels is a column from James Bentley, iMore's resident gaming expert, discussing all things gaming in the Apple ecosystem. Pips and Pixels explores the latest news, accessories, and titles you might have missed out on, and brings you commentary from the leading developers in the app market. As recent advancements in the Apple Silicon M processors and the brand new A17 Bionic chip show, Apple is becoming more serious about gaming. James looks to the rest of the games industry to see what could be next for Apple gamers.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max, the best iPhone right now and my favorite mobile gaming device, is fast approaching its 1st birthday. In that time, a handful of very big titles have been released and it has started to get more support as a gaming platform. However, Assassin’s Creed Mirage performed pretty poorly for me and I would like to see a bigger gaming commitment to the iPhone as a gaming platform from mainstream publishers.
