Diablo 4 was finally released on June 6, 2023, with early access on June 2, 2023. It is the latest game of the Diablo license developed and produced by Blizzard. The publisher has had the habit of releasing games on PC and Mac for several years, but is this still the case today? Overwatch, released in 2016, worked on Mac. But Diablo 2: Resurrected, released more recently, did not work on Mac. What path does Diablo 4 take? So, if you are looking to play Diablo 4 on your Mac computer, here’s a guide for you that will help you out.
Mac: How to Play Diablo 4
For the time being, there is no port planned for Diablo 4 on Mac OS. For some time now, Blizzard doesn’t seem to want to port its games to Apple’s operating systems, at least for its PC games. World of Warcraft continues to be playable on the Mac, thanks to early versions of the games being developed for Apple as well.
There was still hope for Mac players because it was not yet known if Diablo 4 was going to be available on the Xbox Game Pass service, the latter being usable on Mac. But Rod Fergusson, a member of the Diablo 4 development team, announced in a tweet that the game would not be available on Game Pass.
It’s awesome seeing the excitement around the Diablo IV Beta, and our Wolf Pack puppy! We’ve been getting some questions about D4 on Game Pass and I want to let you know we have no plans for that. See you in Sanctuary during the Beta Early Access weekend starting on March 17!
