The minimum price of an iPhone or iPad game in the UK has climbed to 79p, as part of sweeping changes to the baseline price of iOS apps across Europe and Canada.

Apple has already informed its development partners that the starting price of applications in most European countries, as well as Canada, will need to increase by a small percentage. In the UK, which is one of the first countries to implement the changes, the minimum price has risen by about 14 percent, from 69p to 79p.

It marks the second time Apple has raised the minimum price of apps in the UK since the App Store's launch in 2008. The most recent changes were anticipated by some analysts because of a new Europe-wide tax increase on digital goods.

In Canada, the explanation for the price change isn't as clear, though this week the Canadian dollar fell to its lowest level in five years.

The minimum price for a Google Play app in the UK is 50p.

VRFocus-Back in November 2014 the BBC took its first foray into virtual reality (VR) apps to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the first World War. The result was War of Words VR from digital design and direction agency BDH, which was produced in conjunction with a number of other BBC shows. Focusing on the poetry of World War One, the app was made for viewing on an Android smartphone with the likes of a Google Cardboard smartphone-based head-mounted display (HMD). Now, over a month on, the app has finally arrived on the iOS operating system (OS) too.

TheArabGamer writes: "A new free-to-play Mega Man game titled Rockman GoGo! has made it to the Google Play Store and appears to be exclusive to South Korea. Judging from the footage it seems be an endless run type of game with added character stat cards, some of which will cost money. To be fair it does at least look better than Xover though It's worth noting that the assets and models seem to be completely ripped from Mega Man Powered Up--a colorful Mega Man 1 remake made for the PSP."
