What does this mean for possibly playing on a apple silicon mac?
nothing, as the OSX version is still 32bit.
They could have compiled the game for Mac using the same techniques used for this update. The likelihood that Valve will recompile any of their games for Mac seems very low though.
They already have the tooling needed to compile old source games to render via Vulkan but I don’t think they’ve created an equivalent for Metal.
does steam even work on apple silicon natively?
Nah, your best bet for gaming on apple silicon right now is to use https://getwhisky.app/. It's a wrapper around Apple's game porting toolkit (basically proton for silicon Mac)
Yes, it has been supported for a couple of years. No clue why the other commenter said no.
To be fair your question is kinda silly because a quick google search would have revealed the truth.
last time I tried running steam on a mac it didn't work so I just assumed it still didn't, curious on how well the 64 bit tf2 goes on mac
TF2 can’t be played on Mac without additional tools. Steam works fine though.
