Apple may have plans to integrate the App Store with Game Center by launching a download store focused on mobile games. Game Center functionality will not disappear, but will be integrated into the new App Store.
The App Store will contain a number of tabs, including Play now. Sources familiar with the matter told 9to5Mac. This tab will handle the Game Center functionality. Users get an overview of their games, friends, and more in this tab.
Just like in the current App Store, Apple also uses editorial articles through which the American company wants to promote certain games. It gives you, the user, a good idea of what a particular title has to offer. You will not only see the game in question, but also the challenges and achievements associated with it.
More overview in the App Store
The new app store can create more peace in the existing download store. For example, it’s a great place to put Apple Arcade on and stream special developer events.
Behind the scenes, Apple has been working to focus more on gaming for some time. For example, it’s looking at integrations with FaceTime and iMessage for the social side of the story. The company also encourages developers to develop mini-games that can be played via App Clips. This ensures that iPhone users, for example, don’t have to download an app, but can get started right away.
