Best Video Games on IOS with "Multiple Buttons & Two Sticks" Accessibility Settings

Apple TV, iPhones, iPod Touch and iPad devices offer an increasingly powerful way to play games. Along with the Apple Arcade subscription service you can access a large library of console-like experiences that can be played on your mobile device.

Like Android games, you can play on the smaller screen, making use of touch and tilt interactions. Or you can connect a Bluetooth controller or gamepad (including the PlayStation and Xbox controllers) to give games a more console feel. You can also send the visuals and sound to a TV via Apple TV to have a big screen gaming experience.

As part of our Accessibility Report, this page lists games that have been flagged with Controls - Gamepad accessibility (how you control the game, different options for alternative inputs and whether you can remap these settings to suit your needs) for the following:
