New Features to Unlock Next Level Play on iPhone 16
The iPhone 16 has arrived, and gaming has never looked better. With full Backbone One support for the entire lineup—including the iPhone 16 Plus and 16 Pro Max—your mobile gaming adventure begins the second you power up.
Access Native AAA Games on iPhone
Powered by the all-new A18 processor, the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus now bring you titles once exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro directly from the App Store. Play hits like Assassin's Creed Mirage Resident Evil Village, Death Stranding Director’s Cut, and The Division Resurgence. Plus, with Wi-Fi 7 integrated across the iPhone 16 series, cloud gaming just received a serious boost.
Bigger Battery to Play Longer Without Plugging In
The entire iPhone 16 lineup is getting a bump in battery life thanks to a larger battery and improvements in efficiency on the A18 and A18 Pro processors powering the devices. Stay in the game without being tied down by a charging cable when you’re on the go.
Improved Processing to Get the Most Out of Your Games
With an improved thermal design, we expect to see better sustained performance across the iPhone 16 lineup. Apple also announced that the iPhone 16 Pro models are getting 2x faster hardware-accelerated ray tracing than the iPhone 15 Pro, letting you crank settings to the max and get the best possible experience on the go.
