![]() ![]() “I’ve checked how each of the benchmarks compare to desktop laptops at the applied settings. The M1 is more than capable to run a lot of these games and there are now millions of Macs with the M1 and M1 Pro.” “Apple really need to start being more aggressive in getting publishers to port AAA games to the Mac. Hopefully this will inspire more developers to bring their games to the Mac and have native support.” This is the first generation of Apple silicon and once these chips find their way down to consumer level devices it will make this level of gaming performance more accessible to everyone. “It is an exciting time for gaming on the Mac. Can’t wait to see what the devs bring with the next update.” “The video I’ve been waiting for! Especially a Baldur’s Gate 3 test. See Baldur’s Gate 3: it is running incredibly well.” There are very few titles for now but this will change. “Games needs to be optimised or at least native. Native apple silicon games look like they run very well, I would say there is now some incentive for developers to bring their games over.” The hope now is that, seeing these kind of results, developers will see an opportunity to do so in order to increase their market. Games haven’t run well on Mac, so sales weren’t likely to be high, so there was no incentive to support the platform. Most game developers haven’t optimized their games for Mac, but that’s something of a chicken-and-egg situation. #GAMES FOR MAC NATIVE FULL#Watch the full video below for the complete rundown of 25 popular games. #GAMES FOR MAC NATIVE 1080P#Shadow of the Tomb Raider also runs under Rosetta, and achieved the same 96fps at 1080p on High. At 1080p, which he says still looks good, it hits 96fps. Metro Exodus, running under Rosetta, achieved 40-50fps at native resolution. The AMD upscaler is being adapted to run on Apple Silicon, which will further boost frame rates. MrMacRight found that, in 1440p, the game comfortably ran at 120 frames per second most of the time, with slightly lower rates seen during very intense graphics work like combat scenes. The video opens with Baldur’s Gate 3, which runs natively on Apple Silicon. It shows that the machine equals or exceeds the performance of Nvidia’s Geforce RTX 3060 graphics card, which is a popular choice for mid-range gaming rigs. #GAMES FOR MAC NATIVE PRO#It includes fine details like app distribution, if it’s a universal build, resolution, FPS, settings, machine tested on, external monitor support, native or using Rosetta translation, and more.YouTuber MrMacRight, whose focus is gaming on Apple devices, has put together a great roundup of M1 Max games tests, running on a 16-inch MacBook Pro with the M1 Max chip and 32GB of unified memory. In short, gaming on Macs could see some notable growth in the years ahead.ĭeveloper and designer Thomas Schranz has put together a really helpful Google document with all of M1 Mac compatible games (h/t Will Strafach). not natively).Īgain, these entry M1 MacBooks aren’t going to be replacing full-on gaming rigs, but they will offer a decent gaming experience on the go or anywhere around your home at a moment’s notice. That’s with an integrated GPU and running through the Rosetta 2 translation (i.e. On its own 30+FPS isn’t impressive but when you consider The Verge’s Dieter Bohn saw 38 FPS on Shadow of the Tomb Raider with the base $999 MacBook Air, that’s big. We saw an early look at gaming on the new M1 MacBook Air when reviews landed earlier this week. Here’s a look at all M1 Mac compatible games and associated details. ![]() While gaming still isn’t necessarily a strong suit for macOS, the custom M1 SoC definitely brings improvements to offer a solid-enough experience for some titles, and through the lens of Apple’s entry-notebooks even an surprisingly good one. The Apple Silicon M1 Macs offer some seriously impressive performance across a variety of workflows. ![]()
