Do your homework! Check the requirements for Life is Strange: Before the Storm on macOS and Linux

The good news is that while Before the Storm is a game that demands all your attention, it lets your computer off pretty lightly and will run on almost any modern machine.

macOS:

To play Before the Storm on macOS, you will need a 2.0GHz Intel Core i5 processor running macOS 10.13.6, 8GB of RAM and a 1GB Nvidia 650M, 2GB AMD Radeon M290, Intel Iris 5100 graphics card or better. The game is supported on all these Macs:

  • All Mac Minis since Late 2014
  • All 13" MacBook Pros released since 2013
  • All 15" MacBook Pros released since Mid 2012 with a 1GB graphics card or better
    • Mid 2015 models with an AMD 370X are not supported
  • All 21.5" iMacs released since Late 2013
  • All 27" iMacs released since Late 2013
    • Late 2012 models with Nvidia 675 or Nvidia 680 graphics are also supported
  • All 27" iMac Pros released since Late 2017
  • All Mac Pros released since Late 2013

The Macs listed below are also capable of running the game but do not consistently meet the high standards required for official support. This means they can run the game, but may not get the best out of it in terms of performance, graphics and stability:

  • All Mac Minis since Late 2012
  • All MacBooks released since Early 2015
  • All MacBook Airs released since Mid 2012
  • All 13" MacBook Pros released since Mid 2012
  • All 21.5" iMacs released since Early 2013

Linux:

To play Before the Storm on Linux, you will need a 2.9GHz Intel Core i3-4130T running Ubunto 18.04, 4GB of RAM and a 2GB Nvidia GTX 670 or 2GB AMD R9 270 graphics card or better.

For best performance we recommend an 3.2GHz Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM and a 4GB Nvidia GTX 970 or 4GB AMD RX 470.

Hit After Hit — Hitman: Absolution Brings the Heat to iOS & Android this Autumn; Nintendo Switch releases to follow

Branded a traitor and hunted by the Agency he once served, Agent 47 returns to iOS and Android this autumn in Hitman: Absolution.

Building on the success of 2023’s Blood Money — Reprisal, Absolution is the compelling next installment, shining a spotlight on Agent 47’s character and revealing that he is more than just a number.

Stealth meets modernised combat to make ‘going loud’ as satisfying as keeping to the shadows — turning each of Absolution’s 20 missions into an assassin’s playground. Sleek touch controls offer 47’s trademark precision, and, for the full AAA experience on the go, gamepad and keyboard and mouse are fully supported.

Following the mobile release, Hitman: Absolution will arrive on Nintendo Switch in late 2025, with native Switch 2 support to follow in 2026. More details on the Switch versions will be revealed later this year.

So, suit up, straighten your tie and prepare to step back into the highly polished shoes of Agent 47 — pre-order today from the App Store for $14.99 / £9.99 / €12,49 (regional prices may vary), or pre-register on Google Play.
