Popular streaming giant Netflix has officially brought its new gaming service to all iOS users.

As per information, the Netflix gaming service uses Apple's in-app payment system, even though the main app does not. The gaming service was brought to all subscribers on Android recently, but earlier due to some clashes with Apple, it was not made available to the iOS users. But now an official tweet by Netlfix itself announced the news, also informing that the service gives users access to a limited selection of mobile games without ads or in-app purchases.

The recently announced game titled 'Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story' that will cost $10 (US) on Switch and PC, will be available for free to Netflix subscribers. Other cloud gaming platforms such as Microsoft xCloud, Nvidia Geforce Now, Google Stadia, and Facebook Gaming, have struggled to find footing on iOS due to Apple's demanding App Store restrictions.
