Cannot find updated driver for Macbook 2019 to run STAR WARS Squadrons

I have the same issue - it seems Apple and AMD need to update their drivers for the Apple AMD cards (you can only download those drivers from the AMD website - the other more recent drivers won't recognise your hardware. So the only solution is to beg/pester Apple to update their AMD drivers.

One other solution, which I tried (and it works), is to go to www.bootcampdrivers.com and they have the latest AMD drivers for October (I think its called AMD October RED) which work specifically for Apple BootCamp, but this is not supported by Apple. So try at your own risk. It worked for me, and I played the game...but I later uninstalled and went back to the official Apple drivers and want to keep my system stable… but Squadrons doesn't work again in BootCamp.

These do not work, they only update to 19.30.3.

None of the other AMD update applications can find the Radeon 580X in my iMac.

Try the driver from bootcampdrivers.com. AMD website should also provide the latest certified driver.

You will need to ask AMD Support folks why it does not recognize your card. You can also check the driver's .INF.

And nobody will take responsibility either. EA points at AMD and Apple, AMD points at Apple, and Apple points at AMD.

EA came right out and said they don't support Bootcamp.

Sorry, if I sold one of my customers on this, I'd be getting screamed at right now.

Why?

That is question for Apple, not for the ASC.

My iMac is less than a year old, I got it new at Christmas and it was built a few months before that.

That is not really relevant. For example, About the Apple T2 Security Chip - Apple Support shows that the iMacs prior to 2020 did not have the T2 controller, even though T2 has been included a 2018 Mini and 2018 13-in MBP.

I understand that you are running into issues because of differences in models. You can talk to Apple Support and find out if they can offer a trade-in value that may be acceptable to you. Newer models bring their own challenges. It is a choice between stability and bleeding edge.

Apple no longer supports it's own variants of AMD drivers for the models listed in Update AMD graphics drivers for Windows in Boot Camp - Apple Support.

Also,

Loner T, this won't work… the latest AMD drivers can't identify the AMD cards in the Mac architecture, it's weird - you have to download only the Mac Bootcamp ones from the AMD website… but as you mentioned bootcampdrivers.com totally works.

LonerT, I have been seeking you out for help on my issue. I believe you are the only one in these communities that can help me with it. Can you help?!
