Nvidia has updated its GeForce Now cloud gaming service to offer native support for a number of M1-powered Apple computers.
The version 2.0.40 update for MacOS allows the GeForce Now app to run directly on MacBooks, iMacs, and Mac Mini models that feature Apple’s M1 proprietary chip, Nvidia said in a statement.
The update will allow GeForce Now users to now expect “lower power consumption, faster loading times” and to be able to “play for longer periods on battery power,” the brand added.
M1-powered Macs previously had to be emulated using the Rosetta 2 compatibility layer to make the GeForce Now app function. But now, Nvidia promises an “an overall elevated experience” with native support.
To accompany its software update, Nvidia has also added 14 new game titles to the GeForce Now library, including headliners such as Lost Ark and
Nvidia highlighted Lost Ark as an odyssey game, which is available for PC and Chromebook, as well as Mac. On MacBooks, the game is able to stream up to 1600p, and on iMacs up to 1440p.
