Apple China makes another big move: iOS games require a license to be listed on the App Store

Recently, Apple's Chinese App Store has removed thousands of mobile games because these apps have not been approved by government departments. Starting from July, iOS games need special licenses before they can be listed on the Apple App Store and continue to operate.

In fact, as early as February this year, Apple reminded iOS developers that they must obtain many relevant licenses before June 30 to continue operating, but many developers still ignored it. Therefore, when the deadline arrived, many unlicensed games were deleted from the APP Store.

Before this, the iOS Game Store had always been the favorite of small and medium-sized game developers, who would deal with the previous policy through some fancy illegal operations, such as "buying volume", "cutting payment" and "jacket packages", which made them reap a lot of profits. Now that the new policy has come, these small and medium-sized enterprises can no longer "get away with it".

Some analysts also said that Apple's removal of a large number of game apps will definitely have a great impact in the short term. Many game companies have applied for version numbers since last year, but many companies are still in the approval status and have not passed. If they are approved, updated and re-listed, it will take some time, and they may face user losses during this period.
