Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank coder1009

FYI: Aspyr (formerly a mac port studio) is the one offering this sale, not Atari/Frontier Developments. And even though they're advertising it as a Mac game, it's still a steam key and will grant you the PC version upon redeeming it.

This version of the game is PC/Mac so it still works as a Mac redemption. (not sure if you were saying that it is just PC or that you ALSO get PC).

One thing to be aware of though is that the Mac port is designed to run on Intel so if you have a modern Mac that is running Apple silicon, it's using Rosetta 2 to run the game. This is absolutely no problem for performance but it's worth noting that Apple has announced end-of-life for this translation layer so a future version of the OS (the next?) will not be able to play this game.

... might have something to do with the discount.

You're correct. macOS 27 kills off Rosetta 2, which is in September.I know people have stuff like Crossover and Parallels to run Windows games with impressive performance on Apple Silicon, but your mileage varies per game.

Different use cases. Parallels is a virtual machine running an entire OS. Crossover creates "bottles" for games/apps to run in. I, personally, haven't had any need for Windows in years, so Crossover works for my case.

Would you recommend either one for Minecraft Bedrock? Microsoft continues it's anti competitive practices by consistently refusing to make the game available on Mac, going so far as to literally prevent the perfectly function iOS app from working on Mac. It's clearly a ploy by MS to prevent families who are looking at computers for their kids from considering Macs because the killer app their kids want (Minecraft) isn't available.

Anyway, rant aside Wink Would love to know if you have any experience with bedrock and parallels vs crossover.

I was so excited to finally see a Mac Store deal here but this game would just be a buy now while it's cheap and maybe, maybe play it one day. But sounds like it would be a waste of 2 bucks because I tend to upgrade OS's immediately and it if its not going to run on the next MacOS I doubt I'll be getting into Parallels or Crossover. I have the basic, entry level M1 Mac Mini and know just enough about Mac to get me by. (It's a long story but I was a Windows guy for 20+ years and had fiddled around with every part of Windows there is but switched to Mac because of the ecosystem and easy interoperability with all my Apple devices)
