To celebrate the Apple iOS App Store 11th anniversary, Apple has this week released a new update to its iOS ‘Texas Hold’em’ game. The iconic Texas Hold’em game was actually released back in 2006 before the Apple App Store even launched and was initially available for the Apple iPod before game was released for the iPhone in 2008. Unfortunately Apple removed the game from the App Store back in 2011 but is now revamped it to work with the latest devices in version 2.0.
The latest iOS Texas Hold’em game includes 10 poker venues, and winning at one means you’ll move onto the next and will even work off-line in this connected world. Other features include the ability to play against eight other friends in multiplayer mode, and a choice between either top-down or first person gameplay. The iOS poker game is now available to download and will take up roughly 1.5 GB of space on your iOS device.
