FAQ

Can the 24 GB MacBook Pro M5 Pro run Rise of the Tomb Raider?

Yes. With 24 GB we estimate 140 FPS at 1080p High.

Can Rise of the Tomb Raider hit 60 FPS on the MacBook Pro M5 Pro?

Yes: at 1440p Ultra it runs around 88 FPS.

What about 1440p and 4K?

On High, the MacBook Pro M5 Pro gets about 104 FPS at 1440p and about 56 FPS at 4K in Rise of the Tomb Raider. These are native figures.

Do these figures include MetalFX or ray tracing?

No. The headline figure is native resolution, no MetalFX and no ray tracing. Rise of the Tomb Raider has no MetalFX on Mac. Ray tracing, where a game offers it, costs a lot of FPS on any Mac.

Is Rise of the Tomb Raider native on Apple Silicon?

Not quite: it has an official macOS version ported by Feral Interactive, but built for Intel. On Apple Silicon it runs through Rosetta 2, built into macOS, with nothing else to install. Our figures already include that overhead.
