Like Valve's Proton compatibility layer for Steam Deck, Apple has made the Game Porting Toolkit to let Windows games run on macOS - so we tested it.

I mean, I sure hope so, but it seems unlikely to happen in the nearest future. Apple has been mostly ignoring Mac gaming for a long time.

This is the most effort they’ve done outside of the iOS ecosystem in decades.

Apple is usually slow to the party. They just wait for everyone else to try things first before giving it a try. Linux and Steamdeck’s translation layer has been doing this successfully for years.
