Playing games on iMac

I am looking forward to playing City Skylines 2 when it is released, but I don't know if my iMac will be able to play it. I have the 2021 iMac with the 8GB M1 chip.


The game needs CPU:

  • Intel® Core™ i7-4790K / AMD® Ryzen™ 5 1600X.
  • RAM: 8 GB.
  • VIDEO CARD: Nvidia® GeForce™ GTX 780 (3GB) or AMD® Radeon™ RX 470 (4GB)
  • DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 3072 MB.
  • PIXEL SHADER: 5.0.
  • VERTEX SHADER: 5.0.
  • OS: Windows® 10 Home 64 Bit.


Will I be able to play this game on my computer?


Thanks in advance for any help.

That game is for a different operating system, and type of CPU. It will not run under macOS on a M1 Mac.


You might want to check if the developer is planning a Mac version, and if so, what the system requirements will be for it.,
