Apple introduces Game Mode in iOS 18, automatically optimizing iPhone performance for a more seamless and responsive gaming experience. This functionality, mirroring its implementation in macOS Sonoma, prioritizes processing resources towards active games upon launch.
The benefit of Game Mode extends beyond frame rate improvements for the growing library of AAA titles on iOS. Users can also expect enhanced responsiveness for connected AirPods and game controllers due to reduced input and audio latency.
While Apple hasn’t released specific performance comparisons, Game Mode signifies a commitment to elevating mobile gaming on iPhones. This future-oriented feature leverages the power of Apple’s SoCs and aims to seamlessly integrate with upcoming AAA titles.
