Minimum requirements
Likely meets minimum requirements
Likely meets recommended requirements
The publisher lists GeForce GTX 960 (tier 3); we compare against the highest-class alternative, so the requirement is tier 3. M2 Max, 12-core CPU, 30-core GPU — Apple M2 Max 30-core GPU: LIKELY. Apple M2 Max 30-core GPU is tier 5; the requirement is tier 3. The publisher states 4 GB of video memory and this configuration only has shared/unified memory, so the result is capped at LIKELY. M2 Max, 12-core CPU, 38-core GPU — Apple M2 Max 38-core GPU: LIKELY. Apple M2 Max 38-core GPU is tier 6; the requirement is tier 3. The publisher states 4 GB of video memory and this configuration only has shared/unified memory, so the result is capped at LIKELY.
