Asphalt 8: Airborne is getting rid of in-app purchases by joining Apple Arcade on iPhone, Mac

Apple Arcade is available in India for a monthly subscription fee of Rs 99.

Asphalt 8: Airborne, the smash-hit arcade car racing game, is coming to Apple Arcade and along with it is getting rid of in-app purchases. Apple Arcade is the iPhone maker’s subscription-based service for exclusive games, for which users did not need to pay individual charges. However, Apple is now roping in classic and popular games to make Apple Arcade even more lucrative. Asphalt has been there for much longer than Apple Arcade has and that is what Apple thinks will benefit it. First launched in 2004 for a Nintendo DS, Asphalt is currently available for up to its ninth generation called Asphalt 9: Legends. However, Apple is going for the Asphalt 8: Airborne that was released back in 2013 and was one of the most popular racing games. It features extreme arcade racing with a horde of cars and motorcycles with a wide level of customisation. The Asphalt 8: Legends was also the first game to have launched on Apple’s tvOS platform.
