Posted Oct 28, 2009 by Michael Bitton

The Mac version of Warhammer Online is now live! For existing subscribers of WAR, the Mac version is available for download free of charge.

New players will be able to purchase the Mac client at Gametreeonlnie.com for $19.95, and the package will include a free 30 days of game time. The client is available by digital distribution only.

WAR is a fitting MMO for Mac users, it's shallow , very linear and simple, just as Mac users like things.

Considering that OsX is a unix variant, this shows your understanding (or lack therefor) of operating systems...

That aside, I actually don't think that it was a lot of work for Mythic to port WAR to Mac, since they use a commercial software package that 'simply' wraps the Windows code into something processable by OsX. A bit like a stand-alone-version of WINE, I think.
