In a WWDC session, an engineering project manager for GPUs and graphics at Apple, Aiswariya Sreenivassan, said, “Porting your Windows game to the Mac is now faster than ever. This year, the new Game Porting Toolkit provides an emulation environment to run your existing, unmodified Windows game, and you can use it to quickly understand the graphics feature usage and performance potential of your game when running on a Mac.”
Considering the popularity of the MacBook, the new toolkit has already created excitement among developers.
