During Apple's September showcase, the company announced the price and release date details for Apple Arcade. It also took some time to show off a handful of games coming to the subscription service. But curiously, the company left a lot more games unmentioned, including some in big franchises and from notable publishers.
During the keynote, the company gave stage time to Frogger, Shinsekai Into The Depths, and Sayonara Wild Hearts from Konami, Capcom, and Annapurna, respectively. But then, a press release accompanying the keynote rattled off an additional 11 games that were nowhere to be seen during the presentation. Those include a new Chu-Chu Rocket puzzle game, a follow-up to Enter the Gungeon, another Shantae from WayForward, and a new game from the Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler team at Square Enix. You can see the full list with official descriptions below.

Apple Event News
Apple iPhone 11 And 11 Pro Details And Prices Revealed Apple Arcade Price, Release Date Revealed Apple iPad 7th Generation Announced + Show More Apple Event News Links (2) Apple TV+ Price And Release Date Revealed Every Game Confirmed For Apple Arcade So Far
It's not clear how Apple chose which games to highlight. The company may have chosen games that it felt would appeal to a wide audience tuning in for more general Apple hardware news. Still, the company devoted almost twice as much time to the iPhone 11 Pro camera alone, so it's a puzzling choice not to show a larger chunk of the Apple Arcade lineup.
Apple Arcade is launching on September 19, and will cost $5 for a family plan. You can also sign up for a free trial month to test out the service.
