Today, Apple makes powerful computers; But gaming is one of the critical areas in which Windows has the upper hand compared to Mac. After a long time, Apple has finally decided to pay more attention to gamers.
One of the exciting events of the WWDC 2023 conference was the confirmation of the release of Hideo Kojima’s games for Mac. Kojima, one of the most famous game makers in the world, personally appeared at the Apple conference and announced this news. At the Apple event, we saw the heavy Cyberpunk 2077 game performance on Macbook.
The unveiling of the Vision Pro headset pushed Apple’s focus on gaming on the Mac platform to the sidelines. At WWDC 2023, Apple unveiled a new set of tools for developers called the Game Porting ToolKit. This tool lets developers easily port games with DirectX 12 and DirectX 11 to the Mac platform.
According to Dave2D, Apple’s new tool makes it possible to run many Windows games on Mac. Before the release of this tool, there was no way to run DirectX 12 games on MacBooks equipped with Apple Silicon.
Running games through Game Porting ToolKit is not tricky. The process involves downloading a few tools and running a few commands in the terminal. The benchmark results are impressive at first glance. Do not forget that the games in the table are not natively run on Mac.
