Apple’s making a play in the gaming world. They just acquired RAC7, the team behind the hit game Sneaky Sasquatch.
This is a first for Apple – they’ve never directly bought a game development team before. RAC7 is a two-person team that’s made some notable indie games, like Dark Echo and Splitter. But Sneaky Sasquatch, an Apple Arcade exclusive, is their biggest hit yet.
An Apple rep said, “We love Sneaky Sasquatch, and we’re thrilled the RAC7 team is joining us.”
This move isn’t about expanding Apple’s gaming empire, but about creating more great content for Apple Arcade. They’ll work with both small and large studios to develop new games for the platform.
What’s next for Apple Arcade?
Apple’s been beefing up its gaming offerings lately. With RAC7 on board, we can expect even more innovative games to hit the platform.

Here are some of RAC7’s notable games:

As Apple continues to invest in gaming, it’ll be interesting to see what other talent they bring on board. One thing’s for sure – Apple Arcade is becoming a major player in the gaming world.
