- With iOS 26, Safari lets you play browser games in full screen, giving them a native feel on your devices.
- You can play browser games like Elvenar and Krunker without any installs or App Store restrictions.
Apple has officially rolled out iOS 26, and as always, the update comes packed with fresh features, and one of the most interesting additions is in Safari. So, it now supports full-screen for browser games, with no distractions.
You can now enjoy browser games in full screen on Safari
With iOS 26, Safari now allows you to run games in full screen, making browser-based titles feel almost native on your devices. This subtle UX change significantly enhances your gaming experience, especially on larger screens like the iPads.
So, you can now enjoy smooth, distraction-free gaming sessions without worrying about any application downloads or restrictions. Having spent countless hours on web browser games in internet cafes, I like how this reduces reliance on app stores and also gives indie and browser titles a chance to thrive.
Dmitry Kachmar, the founder of Playgama, reported that this “shift goes beyond gaming. The open web is starting to play at the level of native platforms.” And I understand why they’re excited, as more immersive gameplay makes the browser titles more engaging for us and provides value to the devs.
You can try titles like Elvenar, right on your browser
Another plus point is that this update, combined with WebGPU, opens new doors for devs to reach iOS users directly. Plus, it brings browser games closer to cross-platform balance, so you can easily switch between devices without losing anything. This makes me excited to try titles like Elvenar and more.
This also looks like the perfect time for this update, as Browser gaming is making a solid comeback again, with titles like Wordle, RISK: Pogo Domination, Nintendo‘s Pikmin Finder, and more. Now that Apple is focusing on this space, it can boost this momentum even more.
