LET'S START WITH a positive.

It's great to see a high-profile gaming title released on Mac at the same time as the PC instead of two years later. Unfortunately, Assassin's Creed Shadows is so beset with technical problems that we almost wished it had been delayed to allow more time in development.

According to the Mac App Store and Ubisoft's website, the game requires an Apple silicon Mac and macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later.
