Apple announced remarkable news for Mac users at the launch of the new M4 processor-equipped MacBook Pro models. CD Projekt Red’s popular sci-fi RPG game Cyberpunk 2077 will be available on the Mac platform in early 2025. This development stands out as one of Apple’s new steps in the gaming world, aiming to offer a wide range of games especially for Mac users.
In its statement, CD Projekt Red stated that the Mac version of the game will take full advantage of the power of Apple Silicon processors and the advanced features offered by Metal technology. In the company’s statement, the statement “The world of the dark future is offered to Mac players for the first time,” draws attention. In this version, players will be able to achieve a more immersive gaming experience and impressive visuals with features such as ray tracing, frame generation technology and built-in Spatial Audio.
Cyberpunk 2077 will be available on the Mac App Store and Steam at launch. The version that will be available on the Mac platform will be a version of the game called Ultimate Edition, which will also include the acclaimed Phantom Liberty expansion. CD Projekt Red also confirmed that users who purchased the PC version of the game through Steam will be able to use their purchases on Mac. However, it is stated that a Mac computer with an Apple Silicon processor will be needed to play the game.
Cyberpunk 2077, which was first released in 2020, was highly criticized due to technical issues and performance problems, and even entered a process defined as a “problematic launch” in the gaming world. However, CD Projekt Red has increased the performance of the game and made it largely stable with regular updates and various improvements. Developers have integrated a number of technical improvements into the game, such as ray tracing, visual quality improvements and bug fixes, so that players can have a smoother experience.
The Phantom Liberty expansion draws attention with a brand new story, characters and missions that add depth to Cyberpunk 2077. This expansion increased the game’s popularity, making it more attractive to both new and existing players. With the performance advantages of Apple Silicon processors and the advanced features of the Metal graphics engine, the Mac version of Cyberpunk 2077 aims to offer its users a performance close to the console and PC experience.
Cyberpunk 2077 Mac version will contribute to Apple’s goal of a wide gaming ecosystem
This new Cyberpunk 2077 version for Mac is expected to contribute to Apple’s goal of creating a broader gaming ecosystem. In particular, the graphics performance that comes with Apple’s new generation M4 processors supports a strategy that aims to make more room for the gaming world. The power of Apple Silicon processors and the innovations offered by Metal technology lay an important groundwork not only for Cyberpunk 2077 but also for other high-end games coming to the Mac platform.
