I still have version 13.7 for iPad and there doesn’t seem to be a software update available. I really wanna get Apple Arcade, any help would be much appreciated. Also I own a 6th generation iPad.

Your iPad is too far behind in iPadOS upgrades/updates.

If you have access to a full computer, like a Mac or Windows PC, try either using the Finder on a Mac that has the newest macOS Catalina installed OR with an older Mac with an older Mac OS, download and install the latest iTunes version ( or latest iTunes for Windows PC ), make sure the Mac or Windows PC is connected to the Internet, connect your iPad by the USB charge cable to the computer and let the iTunes application upgrade/update that iPad model, using the iTunes Software Update feature, to its current maximum version of iPadOS 14.3.



Best of Luck to You!
