Apple will not release new iMacs this year (2016)

Good news is that by the time the new iMacs are released, the game would be much smoother for the new iMacs. It also means more time to save up for them!

Good news of a sort for me - I only got my current machine a few months ago I did wonder about holding out on getting one until new iMacs were released; now I'm glad I didn't! As you say Aspyr will have been able to optimise the game to run smoother on Macs - I imagine that in the rush to get the game out at more or less the same time as the Windoze version the code is not optimal and they should be able to improve that when the next version is released.

Instead of new models, Apple reduced upgrade prices for older models (including iMacs) to align with the upgrade prices for the new MacBook Pro machines: http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-drops-prices-on-ssd-upgrades-for-older-macs.2011742/

That looks enticing, but I would rather wait for a new iMac model next year instead.
