Comments

Apple has announced price hikes for many of its subscription-based offerings, nearly one year to the day since it announced similar hikes in October 2022. Among the services affected is Apple Arcade, the company's Game-Pass-esque gaming subscription.

Per CNBC, Apple Arcade's monthly price is increasing from $5 per month to $5, while the Premier version of Apple One--the bundle which includes Arcade and other services--is rising from $32 per month to $37.95. The previous price hike from a year ago did not affect Apple Arcade, though the standard Apple One bundle did rise a few dollars at that time.
