Even the humble base-model M1 Macbook Air packs more punch than the previous generation of consoles, yet it may still come as a surprise to realize that the M1 and M2 Apple computers can play some intense games.
Borderlands 3
Released late in 2019, Borderlands 3 is the latest in the massively successful looter-shooter franchise. The game retains the cel-shaded stylized graphics but is packed with modern visual features. It also scales incredibly well, and if you’re conservative with the in-game settings, Borderlands 3 is perfectly playable even on the M1 Air.
We started off with a 50% resolution scale of 2560×1600 and the “very low” preset, while using the “smoothed” framerate limit setting. This works well on the lowest-end M1 system, but you can bump it up depending on which model of Apple Silicon computer you’re using. Also, be sure to purchase the Epic Game Store version of the game, since the Steam version does not include Mac support!
