Apple on the Issue of Serious Gaming Devices by 2020

Apple is certainly one of the computer and gadget brands that until now still hasn't made the gaming market their target market. Since the beginning Apple was only focused on professionals, only then did they enter the lifestyle market. The game market has actually begun to be ogled by Apple with the release of Apple Arcade in September 2019. And some Apple devices (especially mobile) do support and are optimal for playing video games.

And in 2020 it looks like Apple will be even more serious in working on the gaming market, because in rumors on wccftech Apple is rumored to be preparing a Mac device that will target the gaming market, especially esport and is likely to be priced at around $ 5,000 or around 70 Million Rupiah.

Unfortunately it is unclear whether the device that will be issued by Apple will later be a desktop PC, All-in-one PC, or Notebook. Although some parties believe that the possibility of Apple gaming devices will be in the form of All-in-one like iMac or Macbook-style notebooks.

With a relatively high price compared to its competitors even in the gaming market, Apple's gaming device will have quite a lot of PR if you do not want to be branded as a brand that just went along.

From the hardware side, the majority of Apple's computers and laptops now use AMD graphics cards which were not designed to play games.

Not to mention the support of a very small list of games, Apple must be able to convince developers to want to port their new games to be played on MacOS. And it looks like it will be quite heavy considering that the initial price has been set very high, and the focus on the predicted esport will also make it difficult for developers to believe that Apple gaming device users will be many.

But considering that Apple has its own way to grow its user community like they did for the iPhone and of course Macbook and iMac users also seem to be interesting to see how Apple will build a gaming community through devices that have prices far from the market they are currently using, or whether this will only end as a rumor.
