Apple has consistently sought to differentiate itself from its competitors by being at the forefront. Not necessarily by having the most advanced technology, but by always creating devices that set the pace – something that everyone else should aspire to achieve. This hasn’t changed with their new line of mobile devices, the iPhone 15, which has a lot to offer in the realm of video games.
The most notable aspect of the new iPhones can be found when we talk about the Pro and Pro Max versions of the upcoming iPhone 15. As we have previously mentioned, with a starting price of €959 for the basic model with 128GB of storage, they stand out for their 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display and an A16 Bionic chip with 5 cores. So, why are we particularly interested in the Pro version? Because even though its price starts at €1,219, it features an A17 Pro chip with 6 cores. This provides support for ray tracing and for a type of games that mobile devices have never seen before – premium PC and console video games.
In fact, during Apple’s own conference, they have already announced four recent AAA games that will be playable on the iPhone 15. Something that, until last week, seemed completely unthinkable. These games are Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4 Remake, Death Stranding: Director’s Cut, and Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
The first three games will arrive throughout 2023. In fact, Resident Evil Village and Death Stranding have already made appearances in the past to demonstrate the potential of Mac’s graphics API. On the other hand, Assassin’s Creed Mirage won’t be available until the first half of 2024 for iPhone 15 Pro. It will be released on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PlayStation 5, and PC on October 5, 2023.
If all of this has piqued your interest, both the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro will be available starting from September 22nd.
