Frequently asked questions
Almost all of them. Your games install from Steam, Epic or Battle.net on a full Windows PC in the cloud, and you play them right on your Mac. The exceptions: around thirty titles protected by strict anti-cheat that won't run; the up-to-date list is in the Help Center.

Yes. Any Mac running macOS 10.15 or later will do, whatever the model: the power comes from the cloud, not from your machine.
Up to 4K depending on your plan, powered by a dedicated NVIDIA RTX GPU with DLSS. A stable 15 Mbps connection is enough to get started, wired or solid Wi-Fi; you'll want more headroom for 4K.
It's neither emulation nor local virtualization, which both throttle performance, and it's not a locked catalog like GeForce Now: it's a complete Windows PC where you install whatever you want.
Neo and Power, both commitment-free. Switch plans or cancel whenever you like; current pricing lives on the Offers page.
