Moreover, the timing of the ‘Scary Fast’ event, scheduled at 5 pm PT, is unusual for Apple, known for holding events earlier in the day to cater to various time zones. Speculation arises that this timing may facilitate the participation of a significant Japanese game developer. Both Capcom and Sony are Japanese companies, as is Kojima Productions, led by gaming icon Hideo Kojima, the creator of Death Stranding.
Apple has been increasingly courting the gaming community, evident in macOS Sonoma’s Game Mode, designed to enhance gaming performance and controller compatibility. The Game Porting Toolkit simplifies the process of making games compatible with macOS.
As the ‘Scary Fast’ event looms, the question arises: Could Apple be gearing up to introduce M3-powered gaming devices capable of rivaling the PS5 and Xbox Series X? Perhaps a MacBook could emerge as a standout gaming laptop? While there’s some skepticism, the accumulation of hints and rumors has ignited excitement. If Apple reveals new M3 chips and hardware, the gaming world might witness exciting announcements. The days of Mac gaming being a punchline could be numbered.
