Find games in Apple Arcade
Apple Arcade is an ad-free, subscription-based gaming service. Use the Arcade app to sign up for, browse, and download games on Apple TV.
All of the games in Apple Arcade on Apple TV are also available in Apple Arcade on other devices. So you can start playing a game on your iPhone and pick up where you left off later on a bigger TV screen connected to your Apple TV. (Available on iPhone and iPod touch with iOS 13, Mac with Catalina, and iPad with iPadOS.)
You can also use the Sony PlayStation DualShock 4, Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller with Bluetooth, and MFi-compatible game controllers to play games. For more information, see Connect Bluetooth devices to Apple TV.
Note: Game controllers work with select games and are sold separately. Availability may vary by country.

Tip: If you set up Family Sharing, your family organizer can review purchases made by other family members under the age of 18. For example, if Ask to Buy is set for younger family members (configured in System Preferences on a Mac running macOS Catalina, in iTunes on a Mac running macOS Mojave or earlier, or on an iOS or iPadOS device), then when those members try to make a purchase, a message is sent to the family organizer asking for approval.
