Months after Apple opened the App Store to game-streaming apps, the iPhone is about to get its first one. Retro gaming platform Antstream will arrive on iOS on June 27. Cult of Mac first reported on the news.
Antstream Arcade offers over 1,300 retro games from old-school platforms like Atari consoles, Commodore 64, DOS and arcade. It even has a few PS1 games, but its fare is less Metal Gear Solid and more... Hogs of War.
Apple's loosening of rules for game-streaming apps is attributed to the European Union's Digital Markets Act (DMA), aimed at boosting competition and curbing anti-consumer practices. This change allows developers to submit single apps streaming entire game libraries.
Antstream will have a monthly cost of $5 or $40 annually, but an introductory offer of $4/month or $30/year will be available at launch. Interested users can assess the game library on the company's website before the official release.
