Path to iOS App Store Unleashed

by Emma Jan 21,2025

The critically acclaimed action-adventure title, The Pathless, returns to iOS as a standalone release! Previously an Apple Arcade exclusive, this archery-focused exploration game is now available on mobile devices without requiring a subscription.

Experience the vast open world and satisfying archery combat that captivated players upon its initial release. Developed by the creators of Abzû, The Pathless offers a minimalist yet rich gaming experience. Players assume the role of a hunter tasked with lifting a curse from a mysterious island, utilizing mystical abilities and a trusty bow and arrow.

We wholeheartedly recommend The Pathless, having previously highlighted its compelling features. Its standalone iOS release is a welcome return.

While some Apple Arcade games face an uncertain future after leaving the service, The Pathless’s journey demonstrates a different path. Initially slated as a console exclusive, its Apple Arcade debut garnered significant positive attention, leading to this standalone mobile release. This highlights the potential for Apple Arcade to act as a successful launchpad for mobile games.
