Find out more here: https://msi.gm/SE07B622 This is remarkable stuff - the iOS and MacOS port of Remedy's Control delivers almost everything from the original PC version of the game, delivering RT features we didn't even see on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. Almost all of PC's ray tracing features are present, there's MetalFX upscaling along with frame interpolation too - and it all works on the latest iPhone. Oliver focuses first on the game running on iPhone 17 Pro, before running the gauntlet of other iOS devices along with the MacBook Pro M4 Max. Is this the best triple-A Apple port yet?
