Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls service will end on September 3, being delisted from Apple Arcade on August 20

Konami has announced that Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls will be removed from Apple Arcade on August 20 and service will end on September 3. 

For an Apple Arcade game, service ending means it will not be playable anymore. Games usually get delisted first and then are playable for a few weeks or so before they are completely removed from the service. If you haven't kept up with Grimoire of Souls, it was originally announced as a free-to-play mobile title back in 2018, and it even had a soft launch in Canada in 2019, but it ultimately never saw a full release on mobile. It then released back in 2021 as an Apple Arcade exclusive. The Apple Arcade store page is here if you'd like to try it before it is pulled on August 20.
