Apple Arcade is billed through your Apple Account, so it is cancelled from iPhone Settings rather than on Apple Arcade's own website. It takes about thirty seconds.
If you do not see Apple Arcade on that screen, it is being billed somewhere else — check whether a family member manages it through Family Sharing, or whether it came bundled with something else.
Worth knowing: Games stop launching entirely when the subscription ends — Arcade titles are not purchases. Your progress is stored in iCloud, so it returns if you resubscribe.
Arcade games become unplayable at period end but stay on your device with a badge. Save data is retained through iCloud.
Always confirm it worked. Look for a cancellation email, and re-open the billing page to check the status reads cancelled or "ends on [date]". Then set a calendar reminder for the day after the period ends and check your card statement. A surprising number of cancellations do not take on the first attempt.
Most services have a cheaper tier that people never look at, and several offer a pause instead of a cancellation. If you use Apple Arcade occasionally rather than never, a lower plan or a temporary pause usually beats cancelling and resubscribing at a higher price later.
