Apple Inc. announces a major change in App Store regulations, now allowing retro game console emulator apps. This move is seen as a response to the EU’s ruling on third-party app stores, with developers notified via email. Emulator apps can offer downloadable games, with developers responsible for compliance.

By integrating game emulators into the App Store, developers can now list them openly, potentially reducing the need for alternative distribution channels. This change also presents opportunities for Android emulator developers to introduce their apps to Apple devices, expanding the emulation ecosystem on the platform.

Apple’s decision to permit game emulators reflects a significant shift in strategy, giving users the chance to enjoy classic titles from the past on modern devices.
