Aptoide launches alternative iOS game store in Japan

Aptoide has just launched AppArena in Japan. This is the first "tailored alternative iOS game store" for the Japanese market, the company says. The launch was made possible by Apple's recent regulatory-induced changes enabling third-party app markets, following the passing of Japan's new Mobile Software Competition Act of 2025, which mandated this move.

The Japanese launch is in partnership with BBSS Corporation, a digital services and IT provider owned by the SoftBank group. AppArena is available today.
