iPhone 15 - Play various AAA games

[Cedric]

Technology giant Apple has unveiled its new iPhone 15, and - surprise! - Apple is targeting gamers. With the Apple 15 Pro, you can play various AAA games like Assassin's Creed Mirage and the remake of Resident Evil 4, complete with ray tracing. Oh, and it's in real-time, not streamed via the cloud.

The new iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro were officially revealed on September 12th during the Apple event. The tech giant announced that the device can play a lot of new titles. Both the remake of Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil Village, Assassin's Creed Mirage, The Division Resurgence, and Death Stranding will be released for iOS.

According to Apple, the iPhone 15 Pro receives a significant performance upgrade thanks to the A17 Pro chip. The device features a 6-core GPU and a faster Neural Engine. With such hardware under the hood, the iPhone 15 Pro becomes a powerful smartphone that enables console-like graphics on a smartphone.

Thanks to the GPU's mesh shading, games can render detailed environments on your screen with less power. The phone even offers ray tracing, making virtual worlds more vivid. This means the iPhone 15 Pro is capable of playing games that were previously only possible on consoles or PCs.

Also convenient: you can easily connect the DualSense or other gaming controller to the iPhone, so you don't have to play games like Assassin's Creed Mirage solely through the touchscreen.

Watch the video below for all the details and the first gameplay footage.

What do you think?

Ahh, maaaaan, and there I was planning on keeping my 14 for another year.

Just when I thought smartphones couldn't get any smarter. That would be cool to have a lot of games available on console/PC available for the iPhone.

 

[Empire]

it's a powerful device but the question is, will developers make more "premium" games for iPhone and if they do, would people buy them enough so developers continue to make games for iPhone? History suggests no.

Ordered a Pro Max already. I'm running a 12 Pro and the battery is starting to go so was due for an upgrade anyway. How exciting!

 

[Cory]

All I know is I want to play Modern Warfare from my iPhone.

Dang that's impressive! I have a pay as you go plan which usually don't offer the latest phones right away so even if I had the money I couldn't upgrade my iPhone XR to a 15 if I wanted to. It's odd that Apple has made the switch from their lightning port to USB C though. I get people were upset that you had to get a completely different charger, but remember back in the day where so many different cellphones had their own charging cables? It's not too big of a deal to me at least. xD

Not weird, they were obligated by the EU.

It's needed if you want to play AAA games. If they ever release a wide enough selection I may consider buying it and a controller instead of a new gaming laptop or console. I don't mind playing mobile games on my phone as long as they entertain me. I would probably have to be really tight with my money to save up enough to buy it, for the most part.
