After the disappointing WWDC26 keynote, which had very little gaming news and no game announcements, the outlook for big name games coming to Mac this year is not so great. You can see what’s known on the Upcoming Games page. Unless Capcom or Kojima do a sudden game drop then we may be in for a slightly dry spell. Despite that there are lots of fun games coming out, but as is often the case on Mac, especially due to being such laptop centric hardware, it is mostly AA and Indies. Here is the latest.
