A new update to the Steam database for Cyberpunk 2077 suggests that the game’s macOS version is nearing release.
Entries for macOS depots, launch options, and base game support have been added, indicating that CD Projekt Red is preparing to launch the game on Apple Silicon devices.
macOS Version Details
Cyberpunk 2077, which initially launched in December 2020, has seen continuous development, with regular updates for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
CD Projekt Red previously announced a macOS release scheduled for early 2025, with the new SteamDB update aligning with this timeline.
SteamDB Changes
The recent changes include a third launch option specifically for macOS, signaling that the game will soon be playable on Apple’s M-series chips.
This update also suggests that the game will support localization and the base game itself on 2024 MacBook Pro models and other Apple devices.
Performance and Mod Support Concerns
While the macOS release is expected soon, it remains unclear how well the game will perform on Apple’s systems, particularly with Apple Silicon. Additionally, it’s uncertain whether the mod support seen on Windows will be available for macOS players.
A Better Experience than the Initial Launch?
Cyberpunk 2077’s initial release was marred by bugs and performance issues, leading to widespread criticism. However, continuous patches have turned the game into a must-play title for many RPG fans.
The macOS version will hopefully be more stable, but time will tell if it meets the expectations of Mac users.
