More details about Apple’s rumoured game subscription service. According to Bloomberg’s sources, the service will bundle paid games for a monthly fee but it would likely exclude “freemium” games where you need to make in-app purchases to unlock everything. Developers will reportedly get paid by Apple splitting subscription fees based on how often people play a studio’s game. So, in theory, it’ll reward those compelling, popular titles that issue out fresh updates for their games.

Rumour has it Apple might talk about its plans for this as soon as the March 25^th event or we could hear more about this at WWDC in early June since Apple might want to focus on its upcoming news and streaming service on Monday.
