Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition finally comes to macOS this week

CD Projekt Red has been working with Apple's new Macs for a while now, having ported over the classic Witcher titles to run on Apple M1 and newer Macs. Now, CD Projekt Red is going for something more ambitious – a Mac release of Cyberpunk 2077. 

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is heading to macOS this week. CD Projekt Red confirmed its plans to bring Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition to Mac in November last year, but months of silence followed. Now, alongside details on Patch 2.3, CD Projekt Red has confirmed that the game will arrive on Mac tomorrow, the 17th of July.

The Mac version of Cyberpunk 2077 features all the same tech as the regular PC version, including features like Path Tracing, Frame Generation and Spatial Audio. CDPR plans to take “full advantage” of Apple Silicon, along with Apple's Metal API, but we do not yet know how well the game will run.

Once available, Cyberpunk 2077 will run on any Mac powered by an Apple M-series chip, but you are going to have a better time running the game on a newer M4-powered Mac, versus an older M1 unit.

KitGuru Says: It will be very interesting to see the benchmarks for this once it lands. We've already seen titles like Death Stranding and Resident Evil Village on Mac, but Cyberpunk 2077 is a very different beast.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
