Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is coming to Mac with some fresh upgrades
After an initially rocky launch, Cyberpunk 2077 has managed to pull off an impressive redemption story through major bug fixes, performance updates, and a huge Phantom Liberty DLC paired with its 2.0 version. The game has now reached version 2.3 and has fully delivered on the rich storytelling and visually impressive world CD Projekt Red promised. However, one thing no one predicted was Mac support. Now, CD Project Red has not only brought the hit RPG to Macs, but fully optimized the experience for that hardware.
Available starting Thursday, July 17 on the Mac App Store, Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store, Mac users will be treated to a 'For this Mac' graphical preset that will automatically select the best graphics settings for any Apple Silicon Mac, ranging from M1 to the M4 family of chips, so long as they have 16GB or more of unified memory. This means the game will be optimized for a host of Mac devices, including the new iMac, MacBook Air, Mac mini, MacBook Pro, and Mac Studio with M3 Ultra. Depending on your Mac, players can expect MetalFX upscaling, AMD FSR upscaling and frame generation, HDR optimized for Apple XDR displays, and more. As good as Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will look on Mac, it is also going to sound amazing. Those with AirPods can enjoy exclusive spatial audio with head tracking support to offer an even greater level of immersion.

And if you've already experienced Cyberpunk 2077 before on another platform, you can download it for free on your Mac and can take advantage of cross-platform support to carry your save over from any other platform.
This is the latest example of Mac pushing to be a more recognized gaming platform after adding major new releases like Assassin's Creed: Shadows, Death Stranding: Director's Cut, and Resident Evil 4.
Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will arrive on the Mac App Store on Thursday, July 17.

Taiwan's TSMC says second quarter profit up 60%
Taiwanese chipmaking giant TSMC reported Thursday a forecast-beating 60 percent rise in net profit for the second quarter on sustained demand for artificial intelligence technology. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company is the world's largest contract maker of chips and counts Nvidia and Apple among its clients. TSMC said its net profit for the three months to June soared 60.7 percent from a year ago to NT$398.3 billion (US$13.5 billion). That beat expectations of NT$376.97 billion, according to a Bloomberg News survey of analysts. Second quarter revenue was up 39 percent on-year, also beating forecasts. Chips are essential for generative AI, which has exploded in recent years and transformed the global economy. Nvidia said this week it will resume sales of its H20 AI chips to China after Washington pledged to remove licensing restrictions that had halted exports. The quarterly results follow Trump's latest barrage of tariffs and renewed threats to impose levies on pharmaceutical products and chips. TSMC chairman and chief executive CC Wei said last month that the company "may be affected" if tariffs force up prices and demand for chips falls, but he added: "Our business will still be very good." Taiwan has been locked in negotiations with Washington over Trump's threat to impose a 32 percent tariff on the island's exports if they don't strike a deal by August 1. To help its case, Taipei has pledged to increase investment in the United States, buy more US energy and increase its own defence spending. aw/amj/fox Sign in to access your portfolio

TSMC Q2 profit surges 60%, reaches historic high
TAIPEI (Reuters) -TSMC, the world's largest contract chipmaker, posted a 60.7% jump in second-quarter net profit on Thursday, beating market forecasts and hitting a historic high as it benefited from surging demand for semiconductors used in artificial intelligence applications. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, whose customers include Apple and Nvidia, saw April-June net profit rise to T$398.3 billion ($13.53 billion). The profit handily beat a T$377.9 billion LSEG SmartEstimate, which is weighted toward forecasts from analysts who are more consistently accurate.
