Dying Light on Mac: How to Play & Benchmarks

by | Nov 26, 2022

Set in a city devastated by a mysterious epidemic, you spend your days exploring a dangerous and open city, scavenging for supplies and crafting weapons. With your parkour skills, you can explore and travel wherever you want; verticality is an important feature, you’ll want to think in three dimensions.

The fun begins at night when the zombies and other mysterious and worse enemies go on the attack, forcing you to use those weapons and skills to survive until dawn. Featuring single-player, multiplayer, and four-player cooperative modes, Dying Light more than fills your need for a zombie apocalypse shooter.

But what does it take to run this zombie/parkour masterpiece on macOS? How well can YOUR Mac run Dying Light? Can it run on M1 Macs?

Can you play Dying Light on Mac?

You can absolutely play Dying Light on your Mac, including Intel and Apple Silicon Models. Even if the official system requirements don’t mention M1 or M2 Macs, our benchmarks confirm the game runs fine on Apple Silicon Macs.

In spite of still running on the deprecated and outdated OpenGL graphics API, the game can still deliver surprisingly good performance, especially for a highly detailed first-person shooter featuring enormous environments. M1 Macs can easily get the job done, but what about Intel Macs? More on that below.

Dying Light on Mac: Everything you need to know

Dying Light is a survival game set in a devastated open world. A mysterious epidemic ravaged the world, and you’re left scavenging for supplies and crafting weapons to defend yourself from hordes of zombies.

This all sounds great, but the best part is that Techland delivered an Enhanced Edition, which includes a massive expansion, a year’s worth of DLC, improved visuals, major gameplay enhancements, and more. Dying Light also supports Steam Play and Cross-platform multiplayer. Enough to make this my favorite shooter right now.

One more thing… While this is a demanding game, it always worked great, even on our lower-end test machine. That said, you’ll still want a fairly hearty Mac to enjoy it fully.

Dying Light Mac requirements

These are the game’s official Mac requirements:

Requirements
OS: 10.12.1
Processor: Β 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: AMD Radeon R9 M370X (2 GB VRAM)
Hard Drive: 40 GB
A 64-Bit OS and processor are required

How to play Dying Light on Mac

As mentioned before, Dying Light runs natively on macOS, including Intel-based Macs and M1/M2 Macs.

The game does require Rosetta 2 to run on Apple Silicon Macs. But Rosetta 2 works so seamlessly (it installs automatically the first time it detects an Intel-based app), and it integrates so well with macOS that the experience is virtually the same as running a native Apple Silicon Mac.

 

This means Dying Light can run on macOS without requiring any third-party software. Therefore, we won’t waste your time talking about Parallels, Crossover (both excellent tools, but only useful for Windows-exclusive games…), or Streaming services.

Can you play Dying Light on Mac? M1 and Intel Benchmarks

These are the ARK: Survival Evolved M1 benchmarks we have gathered so far:

As a reminder, this is how we describe the different levels of performance:

  • Below 20 FPS: Unplayable: Laggy gameplay, full of stutters and slowdowns.
  • 20-30 FPS: Borderline: Can be OK in slow-paced games. Still, not optimal.
  • 30-45 FPS: Playable: Acceptable for most (most gaming consoles do this).
  • 45-60 FPS: Smooth: Fluid gameplay, with no perceivable stutters.
  • 60+ FPS: Very Smooth: For hardcore and professional players, a luxury for most.

Intel Mac benchmarks

We previously tested the game on these Intel Macs:

  • iMac (5K, 27-inch, Late 2014):Β 3.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB RAM,Β AMD Radeon R9 M290X (2GB)
  • MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016):Β 2.0 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB RAM,Β Intel Iris Graphics 540 (1.5GB)
  • MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2013): 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB RAM, Intel Iris 5100 (1.5GB)

The game was tested on Medium settings and 720p resolution in order to include the older 2013 MacBook Pro:

  • iMac (5K, 27-inch, Late 2014): 60 FPS
  • MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016): 36.3 FPS
  • MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2013): 17.1 FPS

Dying Light Mac gameplay

Can you play Dying Light on a MacBook Pro?

If you have an M1 or M2 MacBook or an Intel MacBook with dedicated graphics, you will be fine running this game at decent settings (1080p and Medium settings). Even our 2016 MacBook Pro with integrated graphics managed to run Dying Light faster than 30 frames per second.

But what if you have an older Intel MacBook with integrated graphics? If we look simply at the results from our 2013 13-inch MacBook Pro, it is clear that Dying Light is unplayable…

Download Dying Light for Mac

You can download Dying Light on Steam.
