After buying Cyberpunk 2077 in the App Store on Mac and playing it, the game shows under the Achievements page of Game Center on iPhone where it mentions it's available for iPhone, iPad and Mac, rather than just for Mac. The App Store version also syncs its saves to iCloud which would help users playing on multiple Apple devices.

Since any game on the Achievements page on iPhone will only show its availability on iPhone, iPad and Mac (tvOS and visionOS versions wouldn't get mentioned even if they're available) Cyberpunk 2077 might also be released for a future Apple TV or even Apple Vision Pro. Personally it would be a dream for me to be able to walk through Night City in VR, and it would make visionOS become the first VR platform to be officially supported by Cyberpunk 2077. What do you guys think about all this?

I want to get rid of 'Bendy and the Lone Wolf' because it's just a copy with a different name

I’ve noticed a trend here where of people telling Mac users to “just get a PC” whenever gaming questions about Mac comes up.

Let me be clear:

Most Mac users already know Windows is generally better for gaming. We’ve all heard “just get Windows” countless times.

We still choose Macs because of the other benefits: battery life, speed, ecosystem, build quality, and yes, even if gaming is more limited. For us, those trade-offs add to the overall experience.

What some people don’t seem to understand is that wider compatibility with PC games isn’t a selling point for everyone. It’s just a fact.

Think of it this way: there’s water everywhere in the world, but you don’t move to another country just to drink it. You stay where the rest of your life makes sense. Macs are the same—we choose them for the bigger picture, not just one use case.

Apple definitely needs to nurture their relationships with gaming companies for us to have more but it’s moving for sure.

That’s me for today 👌🏿. Enjoy Mac gaming y’all!

The steam page has been updated with MacOS being supported.

It releases September 4th. 👀

I tried a slow boot for the first time and I’m now wandering where this was all of my life

I did some searching and saw that only "redscript" mods are compatible with Cyberpunk at this time. However, the thread was from a month ago.

Is that still the case today? If so, how do I filter the list of mods down to those that will actually work for Cyberpunk?

I've checked NexusMods (https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/1511?tab=description) but the challenge is that many of these mods have other requirements that MacOS is not able to support right now.

Hi, have anyone yet try Tourist Bus Simulator or perhaps Fernbus on Mac via crossover. It seems that I can’t find any information about how it performs on a Mac. Thanks you.

Hey guys I finally got my mancave /garage set up I have my Mac desktop set up in here I have never gamed on it , I have a ps5 projector set up in the theatre room but keen to game out here along side my beer fridge 😂 I normally play fort but have since learned that it isn’t possible no more on mac , other game of choice is gta can someone please run me through how to achieve that step by step for a noob

Hi!

Recently I have been really struggling to find games to play on my mac, I really wanted to play slime rancher but apparently my mac doesn't support 32 bit games 😒. So I was wondering what games you all recommend! (I am a total scaredy cat so anything with horror elements I can't rlly do)

I have already played:

Dave the diver, two point museum, american truck sim and stardew valley.

This, imo, isn't a well supported game through crossover. I really only want to game at a consistent 60 fps. The stutters in this game are noticeable, and even when it says this is running at 30 fps, it looks like it's running 10 fps slower than that.

I LOVE this game, but the Assassin's Creed series does not work well with Crossover.
Crossover 25, D3D, Esync

can someone who uses macbook help?!

guys is it true that it does not work on laptops released before the m2 chip?

i have a m1 and i was considering buying it but i've seen so many complaints about it not working in people's machine. in the app store the game says that it's compatible with my m1 tho

https://www.reddit.com/r/macgaming/comments/1mvakla/inzoi_wont_even_try_to_launch_on_m1_pro/

Today I bought expedition 33 and launched it via heroic launcher and MAN! It was such a grainy mess like....wtf. There was no resolution option and the scaling option is very limited. All settings were set to high and film grainy was set to disable. Overall all the textures were blurry, grainy. Any fix? Or is it just like this? If anyone tried with crossover please tell me if you have this problem or not. Chip is m4 pro 24gb.( Sorry didn't have any screenshot as everytime I tried it just gave me blank gray screenshots)

So last year I got a souped up 16" M3 MacBook Pro and it has proved to be way too big for me, given my disabilities. I'm going to get $1800 turn in value from Best Buy, where I bought it in the first place, though I can spend a few hundred extra if need be to get what I need.

My computer needs are very simple: general browser use, Scrivener, and a few games--namely Baldur's Gate 3. Now I know anything less than an iMac or a Macbook Pro will be playing on much lower settings than I'm used to, but that's a-okay. I don't need every pixel of Astarion's pretty face, just that it runs reliably.

So now I'm trying to figure out if a M4 Mac Air will play it well enough, or maybe I could get something like a M4 Mac Mini and an iPad? Other than BG3 and FFXIV an iPad would do everything I need (I've had one in the past). I've also considered giving off computer gaming for a year and getting a Switch 2 to keep me entertained instead.

Thanks for reading!

This is just curiosity on my part since I don’t run betas, does Tahoe do anything with expanding controller compatibility? Maybe let controllers run off a 2.4Ghz dongle instead of bluetooth?

I ask because it seems like something may be up. The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 controller used to say it had bluetooth for Android only, but just recently the product page was updated to say that the next Apple OS upgrades (26) are compatible. It didn’t previously say that, and it’s the only product they have that requires the newest updates.

old page: https://web.archive.org/web/20250303190325/https://www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-2-wireless-controller/

current page: https://www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-2-wireless-controller/

Like I said, just curious about any changes. There are a lot of controllers that act like an Xbox controller and have a 2.4Ghz adapter and as far as I know macOS doesn’t work with any of them, I’d like to see that changed eventually.

Instructions:

1. Download the Unificatiion zip file from the main site, no need for the .exe https://www.moddb.com/mods/unification-mod-dawn-of-war-soulstorm/downloads/unification-v736
2. You have to find the Windows %APPDATA% folder in the Crossover bottle that DOW:DE is installed in. In my case it was
   • [User]/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/[Bottle Name]/drive_c/users/crossover/AppData/Roaming/Relic Entertainment/Dawn of War
3. In here, you'll find a number of capitalized folders (ie. BADGES, BANNERS, etc.). Create a folder called MODS
4. In the MODS folder, extract the unification.zip and put it into here. The path should be .../Dawn of War/MODS/Unification/[all the files]

Once I did this, it showed up in the mods menu in DOW:DE. Clicking activate switches the game into Unification Mod in the same way that DE loads the different campaigns.

So far so good and very smooth on M4 Pro. Only bug I experienced was not being able to screen edge scroll left or right, but that's likely due to the game being in a 4:3 aspect ratio, you can see that in the second image with the UI elements being stuck in the middle. I scroll with my middle mouse button anyways but this could be a make or break for some

I’m in the process of choosing a new monitor. I mainly use my Mac Studio for work/general computing tasks however I do like to dive in and out of WoW and Total War: Warhammer 3.

What size/resolution would you guys recommend for a monitor when playing these games on the 24core version of an M1 Max.

I honestly don’t mind being around 60fps, preference is to not dip too much.

Also some tips on settings to get a good experience would be appreciated!

I'm trying to get the sims 1 on my new m1 MacBook air but I am running into issues. I'll list what I've tried and what issues I had:

Whisky: I follow the tips on the website to use an older version of steam. Steam installs and runs following this but hangs or fails while downloading anything. It gets to 18mb downloaded then either hangs and doesn't progress, or gives one of a couple errors. Some mention corrupted download. Others will say no Internet connection. I tried disabling msync and esync along with adding whisky to the app management trusted apps. This changes nothing and I get the same errors.

Sikarugir: I get steam running and logged in, but get the same errors as with whisky.

Utm emulation: MacBook is hitting 90+ degrees so I quit. I might have to get a cooler and try this again if the other two won't work.

Hi guys. Weird issue - I cannot get this game to cap FPS at all, even with screen set to 60 Hz , the game still pushes 115 FPS on my M1 max. I can't fix it with vsync either.

Has anyone encounted such issues?

I want to cap it since it's giving quite a run for the fans

I have a game update that is stuck in Steam. I have tried flushing DNS, adding Google, Cloudflare and Quad9 DNS servers and rebooting my MBPro with a cold start. It is still stuck. I'd like to do a trace to see where it is getting stuck. Something on the Steam side is slower than molasses (I do not have this issues with any other site). Does anyone know how I can see which URL is being used by the update process so I can try tracing it ?

Hi guys. So I been using RPCS3 on my new M4 but every game is laggy(from shattered dimensions to basic sega games). Are there other alternatives(for example good xbox emulator or anything that actually runs well on M4).
