MacBook Air M1 (8-core GPU, 16GB RAM).

Thanks in advance – trying to avoid buying a PC just for one game 😅 M1 Air 16GB: 30-40 FPS on low/med at 1080p. Playable up to ~60k pop. Rosetta only (no native ARM). No heavy mods. Gets warm but no major throttle on Air. Vanilla + a few DLCs is fine. cities skylines mac m1 reddit

Hey folks, I’ve been digging through old threads and the info is all over the place. Looking for a on running CS (vanilla + maybe a few DLCs) on an M1 Mac. MacBook Air M1 (8-core GPU, 16GB RAM)

I’d rather play locally if possible.

I know the golden rule: “Don’t expect PC modded 81-tiles with 5,000 assets.” Totally fine with that. I just want smooth enough gameplay for casual city building. Rosetta only (no native ARM)
