For its first announcement during its big iPhone event, Apple has shared a number of new details about its gaming subscription service Apple Arcade. As we learned earlier this year, the service will feature more than 100 exclusive games that you can’t get anywhere else, and today we find out that Konami and Capcom are among the launch partners.
