I have been playing this game on console for 3 years but I've been wondering if this game is ever going to come to Mac

    The game was on MAC years ago but was sunset but I can't remember the exact year it ended. @darkbladejk or @rattler2 may know

    Quick Google search says... 2016 was when they ended Mac support. I think some people still play on Macs via workarounds, but I don't know them and the workarounds tend to be finicky.

    But yea... officially there is no Mac support.

    Thanks Rattler I did search myself but got nothing. But surely those who do play on MAC can't contact support as it isn't an officially supported platform.

    The game used to have a Mac client years ago, but it was ended. You can still play but you'll need something like Wine or Bootcamp to run it via a workaround. Aside from something like that you're up the creek unfortunately.

    I still play on Mac via bootcamp. Wasn't happy about the sunset as I only replaced my iMac about 3 months prior choosing it over a Windows replacement. Back in the day when MAC OS loaded in under 30 secs and not 30 mins.
