Apple recently unveiled its new iPhone 15 in an exclusive event. They highlighted what’s different about this device, and it’s worth noting that it’s the most expensive iPhone to date. They emphasized its power, with one of the fastest chips ever seen in a mobile device. They also mentioned that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models will be capable of running high-quality ‘AAA games’ without any issues.
This means that the top-tier, visually advanced games will work smoothly on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max phones. This is not just a possibility; it’s confirmed, and these games are coming. Companies like Capcom, Ubisoft, and Kojima Productions are on board, and mobile versions of their games will be easily adapted to the iPhone 15 when it releases later this year.

Mobile Gaming Is on the Verge of a Big Transformation
Mobile gaming used to lack high-quality games with top-notch graphics and experiences. It’s improving, but there were obstacles. While mobile esports has been growing, core gaming on mobile was seen as not up to par. However, the recent rise of handheld devices like the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go is changing this.
This shift creates a market eager for better mobile gaming, and Apple is seizing the opportunity. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max will come equipped with the cutting-edge A17 Pro chipset when they are released. This chip can handle real-time ray-traced graphics, a groundbreaking feature for mobile devices. This means that games running on these iPhones will not only be compatible but may even look better than on most average gaming PCs.
Here are some games showcased for the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max:
1. Resident Evil Village
2. Resident Evil 4 Remake
3. Assassin’s Creed Mirage
4. Death Stranding
Apple Doesn’t Require a Specialized Gaming Device
It appears that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are Apple’s serious attempt to enter the mobile gaming scene. While other developers are thinking about creating entirely new gaming devices, Apple has focused on enhancing what’s already there by putting the fastest chip ever into a phone. What’s even better is that you can connect Bluetooth controllers like the PS5’s Dualsense or the Xbox controller to the iPhone 15, eliminating the need for frustrating touchscreen controls.
Imagine being on a train – you can open your new iPhone 15 Pro Max, connect a controller, and start playing Assassin’s Creed Mirage in seconds.
However, there’s a significant cost to consider. The iPhone 15 Pro starts at around $999, and the Pro Max is even more expensive at $1,199. While these prices might make something like an Asus ROG Ally seem like a more cost-effective choice, everyone needs a phone, right?
