Of the Macs it has always been criticized enough that Apple does not bet on implementing graphics cards with greater possibilities in order to attract a greater number of users and incidentally be able to make use of virtual reality systems such as Oculus, for example. But still, from time to time we come across the news of the arrival of a game that will try to make the most of our Mac. We are talking about the F1 2016 game, a game that will hit the App Store on April 6. This has been possible according to the developer thanks to the new Metal API, an API that is also responsible for Macs built before 2012 do not have the Night Shift option natively, as we discussed a few days ago.
According to David Stephen, Managing Director of Feral Interactive, developer of the game:
It's been three years since the F1 game hit Macs and a lot has happened since then. F1 2016 is a step forward for the franchise, which has been able to considerably improve the driving experience in the game.
Naturally, the requirements to get the most out of this game are quite high:
F1 2016 minimum requirements
- Intel core i5 at 2.8 Ghz
- macOS 10.12.4
- 8 GB of RAM
- 2 GB NVIDIA 680 / AMD R9 280M / Intel Iris 540 or higher.
F1 2016 Recommended Requirements
- Intel Core i7 at 3.3 Ghz
- 16 GB of RAM
- 4GB AMD R9 or better
The game will be multiplayer, which will allow us to play online against 21 players. The price of this game will be $ 48,99We still do not know if the price will be the same in euros, or if there will be an increase along the way, as is usual when the price of the same is a bit high. Next April 6 we will leave doubts.
