Cyberpunk 2077 started on big consoles and PC, but now also runs on handheld and Apple hardware. We summarize press tests. Results vary by setting and patch, so treat them as guides.
Key takeaways
- Switch 2: a launch title since June 5, 2025, on a 64GB cartridge.
- Steam Deck: verified by Valve in February 2023, and benchmarks show about 30 fps.
- Mac: Apple silicon with 16GB or more memory and macOS 15.5 or later.

Nintendo Switch 2
Wikipedia says the Ultimate Edition was a Switch 2 launch title and ships fully on a cartridge. Digital Foundry (via Nintendo Life) found docked play far ahead of Steam Deck, with DLSS giving a cleaner image. A performance mode targets 40 fps but is less steady. In handheld mode there is no performance mode and the target is 30 fps. It was slightly less stable than Steam Deck in those tests, but drew only about 8.9W against about 24.5W.
Steam Deck
Valve verified the game in February 2023. Laptop Mag noted that Verified means it works without tweaks, not that frame rates are guaranteed. Benchmarks it cited showed fairly steady 30 fps.
Mac
CD PROJEKT RED released the Ultimate Edition on Mac on July 17, 2025, on the Mac App Store, GOG, Steam and Epic. It needs an Apple silicon Mac with 16GB or more of memory. M1 models with 16GB are supported, and so are M3 and M4 families. It includes ray tracing and frame generation. Owners on those stores get it free.
| Mac chip (community test) | 1080p Medium, average fps |
|---|---|
| M4 Max | about 132 |
| M3 Pro | about 67 |
| M4 (10 GPU) | about 50 |
| M1 (8 GPU, 8GB) | about 25 |
These are community numbers shared by Tom's Hardware, not controlled lab tests. Ray tracing and Ultra cut speed sharply.
How to pick
- Want the smoothest image: a PC or a high-end Mac.
- Want to play on the go: Switch 2 or Steam Deck, at about 30 fps.
- On a base Mac: choose Medium at 1080p.
