Most game developers haven’t optimized their games for Mac, but that’s something of a chicken-and-egg situation.

Watch the full video below for the complete rundown of 25 popular games. 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.

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.
