Considering the new game port toolkit ports dx12 to Apple Metal which is supported on iPad with the same architecture these games are being ported to. Elden ring on ipad?

    Hello Lemmy. This is my very first post. Nice place!

    Concerning the subject of this post, I’m not sure to understand the question.

    If the question is “Are we going to see an iPad version of Game Porting ToolKit?” the answer is unfortunately no, since it is a developer only tool, not meant to be used by users for gaming.

    But regarding the fact that the upcoming VisionPro is natively compatible with any iPhone and iPad app/game, and share the same M2 chip I wouldn’t be surprised if we see some big games coming to the iPad.

    Now, as for Elden Ring specifically, there’s no way to be sure of that, nor indication that we should have hope for it to happen

      Well the thing is my iPad has the same hardware as a mac. It’s mostly just a different chassis.
