60FPS, smooth and great quality
moodyomarz
I honestly had to but a review when I saw the bad reviews on the game, the game runs smooth on my m4 max, and so it did on the M1 Max(maybe a little better here) but either way the graphics are great, performance is 60fps, story, characters and everything I really am enjoying it. For a triple game on Mac, for the first time even, this is huge.
Runs awesome on my M4 Pro 16

Runs awesome on my M4 Pro 16. Nothing much to add, just had to add my review because this plays great :)
Don’t buy on MacBook Air!

This game is completelely incompatible with MacBook Air! Even it says so in the description- don’t do it. The Game Cannot run past the main menu. It freezes constantly. You can’t even get to the gameplay. Save your money.
Run bad

20-30 fps
Developer Response
Hi there Vog-IL, we're sorry to hear about your experience with running Assassin's Creed Shadows, due to not being able to achieve higher than 30 FPS for the game. Per our system requirements (see link at the bottom of Game Description, "More"), we can only guarantee 30 FPS for any supported chip set. Some players have been able to manage more, so you may be able to find community discussion on this on the Assassin's Creed Shadows Discord or Reddit. However, if you are getting less than 30 FPS often, please try a few steps to help fix this: Force quit out of other background programs when trying to run the game (to test out resource usage). Ensure your OS and game are fully updated and all content has finished installing. As a last resort, try reinstalling the game to ensure there aren't any corrupted or missing files from the original install. If the issue is persisting, run Apple Diagnostics. The instructions can be found on Apple's Support page under "Use Apple Diagnostics to Test Your Mac." Once you've done this, contact Ubisoft Support on the official Ubisoft Support Discord server, mention your device specs, description of what's happening, the troubleshooting that you've completed, and submit your system files. Be prepared to submit your Diagnostics file once an agent helps you with your case (Web search: Discord Servers > Enter "Ubisoft" > Join first server on list) Thank you!
