I guess we’re all starting to get more used to having content leave subscription services, but that doesn’t make it sting any less losing access to a great game or other piece of media. Last October Giant Squid and Annapurna Interactive’s excellent archery-based third-person action game The Pathless was removed from Apple Arcade. It was one of the original games announced for the Apple Arcade service prior to its September 2019 launch and one of the games that was most heavily featured by Apple to promote said service. It was supposed to be a launch title but a few delays pushed it back to November of 2020 which is when it launched on Apple Arcade, PlayStation, and PC simultaneously. In February of 2023 it made its way to Nintendo Switch and Xbox.
Anyway, The Pathless was truly one of the great games on Apple Arcade, and despite being available on other platforms it was a bummer to lose the only way to play the game on mobile devices. Thankfully Annapurna wasn’t going to leave us hanging and today they’ve released a standalone premium version of The Pathless as a regular old App Store release. The game is priced at $9.99 which is cheaper than its regular price on other platforms, but also matches the current sale price of the game on Steam. So if you missed out on The Pathless when it was an Apple Arcade title now is your chance to buy the game the old-fashioned way and see what you’ve been missing.
