even if they do release AAA more frequently. I would be hesitant to purchase any of them, as there is a high chance that they stop working when a new OS update is released. And the dev won't bother updating the game to support the new OS version. It happened to me when I bought the iOS version of Bioshock. It worked for 2 months and then it longer works, while 2K never bothered to update the game. Wasted $15 on that version of Bioshock and that was the last time I ever purchased a game from iOS store.

If you want to get rid of the bar at the bottom while gaming on iPhone, activate the, "Guided Access," mode in Accessibility settings. Once activated launch the game and hit the power button 3 times. It will remove the bar and prevent you from accidentally shutting the game off. Hit the power button 3 times again to deactivate.

I see the swipe bar persist in quite a few games on iOS. According to some guy on Reddit, it's because of Apple making Apple-like design decisions. You can either have it translucent like in the video where it takes one swipe to activate the bar and another swipe to go home, or have it completely hidden but it will immediately send you home if you swipe up. In a game where you swipe to pan around, the former is probably better than the latter. The latter only makes sense for apps playing videos where you aren't constantly touching the screen.

That's because the raw compute is still in that territory. iPhone 15 Pro is still barely able to run games like Crysis 3 at the same level as a PS3. The Samsung Z Fold 6 is more powerful than the iPhone 15 Pro, and it still would only be marginally more powerful than a PS3 at this point. The most enlightening thing is that the Nintendo Switch is nowhere near as powerful as a PS3 despite how many ports run better or at a higher resolution than on real PS3 HW, most of the benefits of Switch and phones comes down to much more efficient software is today rather than compute resources, which are still less significant on the most powerful phones.

I have to admit, after the recent patch it’s not too bad. I just finished playing the prologue (for free, haven’t reached the point where I’m prepared to fork over $50 for a significantly hampered version of a game I already own). I played on my iPhone 15 Pro Max at high settings and the performance has been greatly improved, I was plugged in to power and at 80% the phone stopped charging as it was too hot, but other than the occasional stutter and very sluggish / unsatisfying controls it was playable and a definite peek into a very interesting future, one where you may start a play through at home on PC during the weekend, then continue playing on your commute to work during the week (without the need to lug around a big/heavy gaming handheld). I believe cross platform compatibility is key for Apple to find success, because I don’t think I’ll ever play any game start to finish on my phone.

Honestly, coming from someone who really enjoys gaming on my pc and series x and loves pushing fidelity, I bought this game only for the iPhone 15 pro to really try the experience. Keeping an open mind about the device it is on, I really do think it’s incredible and worth it. Edit: I do use a Peltier cooler and I believe that is why my game has not suffered from any hitching or freezing. I do have the occasional crash but other than that I would say the game is 99% stable so I’m assuming it’s the processor thermal throttling that is causing the hitching and consistently lower frame rates for those of you feeling it. I would usually play at +100fps at 1600p on my pc with maxed setting if possible but the lower frame rate of this game on such a small screen really doesn’t bother me. I’m really enjoying the game and keeping an open mind that it is on such a mobile devices, that already has a place in my pocket wherever I go.. 30fps on a current console game on a mobile phone is so exciting to me. I will be buying shadows for this phone as well. I’m sure with a little more optimization, the games could actually run smoother with locked 30 fps and better frame times. I’m enjoying the mobile experience of these AAA titles. It be so cool if Apple started selling its own Peltier coolers for their iPhones. If they’re going to advertise these are gaming devices, they could benefit from a portable cooling system.

I think phones aren't strong enough to run AAA games in respectable settings, HOWEVER, iPad with M chip would be a really good choice. I believe devs would make a lot of money by porting a game to iPad, not only it has a big screen, you can play it with wireless gamepad anywhere you are. On top of that, they can make their game bigger in size by using higher res textures and objects, unlike in this case.

Its a shame that the mobile market for the "core-audience" has been irrevicably tainted by free to play and gacha games. The days of Infinity Blade, Shadowgun, Battleheart, and Zombieville USA are over. Nobody is going to take Assassins Creed on the iphone seriously, no matter how pretty or low priced it is. Rich said this quote and I think it applies to Apple's push for AAA games on iphone, "The level of engineering that went into something that is ultimatley not needed is an astonishing technical achieviment!" Now if Apple can get GPTK to be more open for the public and basically be Apple's answer to Lutris or Proton, now we may have something interesting.

This year's iPhones will most likely be able to manage a stable >30fps on High, next year's will potentially handle close to 60fps, etc. As more powerful hardware options become available, users will be able to decide if they want higher fps or better visual fidelity.
