Indie games earn big spotlight on Apple’s App Store

Apple launched a hub devoted to “Celebrating Indie Games,” where users will find the latest games from independent developers, but also some of the all-time best indie titles for iOS devices.

For example, users will see a list of “Our 25 favorite indie games” at the top. Some of the games featured include Super Hexagon, Threes, and Limbo.

The editorial indie page was designed as a regular fixture on the app store, where users can find the best and latest indie games available on iOS.

Apple was already hinting at a deeper push toward highlighting indie games through some themed promotion on the app store prior to the launch of the indie games hub. Prior to the launch of the indie games hub, the top of Apple’s App Store featured sections such as “Indie greats” and “newly discovered indies.”

Gaming is the most popular category on Apple’s App Store.

According to the top charts, the top 5 most popular paid apps are games, while the category owns 7 of the top 10 spots in the top grossing chart.
