Common questions

Does Drift21 run on Mac?

Drift21 is graded playable on Apple Silicon through Pixel Port's runtime. Its current grade is playable for Apple Silicon Macs. Drift21 is built on Unity, and Pixel Port's runtime translates its rendering to Metal automatically. It is not enabled in the beta yet, so request it in the app or join the Pixel Port Discord before trying to install it.

Do I need to own Drift21 on Steam?

Yes. Pixel Port does not sell, host, or distribute games. Drift21 downloads through Steam, to your own Steam account, exactly as it would on a PC — you need to own it there first. Pixel Port is the compatibility layer that runs the Windows build Steam delivers.

Do I need Windows, Boot Camp, or a VM to play Drift21 on Mac?

No. Pixel Port runs the Windows build of Drift21 directly on macOS — no Boot Camp partition, no virtual machine, and no Windows license.

Which Macs can run Drift21?

Any Apple Silicon Mac — M1 through M4, MacBook Air to Mac Studio — on macOS 14 or later.
