By Editor • September 13, 2026 • 1 min read
In an exciting development for mobile gaming enthusiasts, Apple is reportedly venturing into the gaming accessory market with the creation of two game controllers designed specifically for the iPhone. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, these controllers are expected to be marketed under Apple's Beats brand.
The speculation surrounding Apple's foray into game controllers isn't new, but it gained traction recently when MacRumors uncovered references to two game controllers in the code of macOS 26.7. Interestingly, even though these findings were made in macOS, Gurman emphasizes that the controllers are intended for use with iPhones.
What's more, the initiative appears to be spearheaded by Beats executives, indicating Apple's strategy to leverage its subsidiary brand to explore new product categories and enhance competition within the gaming accessory space.
