Bloober Team is also porting former Xbox-exclusive The Medium to Apple Macs later this summer.
Since this is an FPS based on Unreal Engine 5, I'm curious which macs can run this on 4K with excellent quality. So far, the games running on Unreal 5 are not giving great performance on my Studio Max.
The general atmosphere of the trailer + lighthouse reminds me of Alan Wake from the Xbox 360 era.
