This is a video about the new Steamworks API update which now includes ARM64 support for native M1 Mac games as well as Universal binaries which include Intel/Rosetta 2 builds as well as native ARM builds. I discuss what the implications are for native ARM games being released on the Steam platform and what this means for the future of gaming on the M1 Mac.

All footage is recorded on my M1 MacBook Air 2020 with 8 GB RAM and 8 GPU cores. See here for more M1 Mac gaming benchmarks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkyz_xnHUX9ua7OJobIP0ng
