Predator: Hunting Grounds is an asymmetric PvP game developed by IllFonic and published by PlayStation PC LLC. It puts a four-person Fireteam against a single, yet powerful mercenary known as the Predator. Members of the Fireteam are given a different objective during each match; once it is accomplished, they must escape on a helicopter. Coordination is essential in this game mode, as Fireteam members stand no chance against the Predator one-on-one. The players also receive weekly objectives they can work towards during matches, through it is obviously secondary to winning the match. The Predator’s objective, meanwhile, is significantly more straightforward, and always stays the same: to eliminate all members of the Fireteam. Obviously, they won’t go down quietly and have the numbers on their side. You must use your unique abilities – thermal vision, stealth cloak, bear traps, and others – as well as your powerful weapons to turn the tide in your favor. The game is available on PS4 as well as Microsoft Windows (through both Steam and Epic Games Store). There is no official macOS port, but you can still play Predator: Hunting Grounds on Mac using third-party solutions. The guide below will explain your options.

X4 Foundations is a space sandbox game developed by Egosoft for their X Universe game series. Unlike many games in this genre (for example, Elite Dangerous), X4 Foundations, and the series as a whole, do not focus on exploration and combat, though there’s still plenty of that. Instead, the main selling point of this game is its complex, fully simulated economy. Here, the economy works the same way it works in real life, through logistics and supply chains. First, the base resources, such as energy and ore, are produced. Cargo spaceships take these resources and deliver them to factories which turn them into intermediate products, and, somewhere down the line, usable products such as that shiny SPL M Tau Accelerator Mk2 weapon you’ve been eyeing. And if there’s none in stock? Well, maybe it’s because a few Silicon Wafer factories on the other side of the galaxy have stopped production and now there’s a shortage. Time to seize that market share; in this game, you don’t just fly around and trade and shoot. You can, eventually, lead a vast trade empire with many factories and ships under your command. Although it is only available on Windows and Linux, you can run X4 Foundations on Mac too by using third-party software. The guide below will provide the instructions.

Final Fantasy XII is a JRPG developed by Square Enix for their highly successful Final Fantasy series. Like most other FF games, it features a self-contained story not tied to other games in the franchise. This time, the story takes place in a world called Ivalice. The lands of Ivalice are rich in magicite, a mineral imbued with magical energy. As it is commonly used as a fuel, the line between magic and technology became very blurred; perhaps some would say that this line doesn’t exist at all. But although magicite allowed many technologies to exist, including airships so iconic to the Final Fantasy franchise, it did not usher an era of peace and prosperity. The Rozarrian Empire and The Imperial Archadia have long waged war with each other. To gain the upper hand, Archadia has moved to occupy a number of smaller nations. Although they were unable to resist militarily, this move will have consequences. Trouble is brewing in occupied Dalmasca… Final Fantasy XII was originally released on PS2 all the way back in 2006. Eleven years later, in 2017, it was re-relased on PS4 under the title The Zodiac Age; MS Windows, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch versions followed. And although it did not receive a macOS port, it is still possible to play Final Fantasy XII on Mac. Explore your options with the guide below.

Omega Strikers is a multiplayer PvP game in anime style developed by Odyssey Interactive. Releasing on September 17th, 2022, the game enjoyed warm reception and currently ranks “Very Positive” on Steam. And although Omega Strikers is free to play, the developers reassure us that the game will never become pay-to-win. Whether you trust this promise or not, it is certainly true for the time being. Gameplay-wise, many people have compared Omega Strikers to football, or futsal, while in the world of e-sports the closest comparison is Rocket League. All matches take place on a small pitch without any obstacles, with two teams of three players each, and one ball. A team can win the game by scoring five or more goals while also being two points in the lead. But this is not just a virtual football game with anime characters. Said characters have many abilities, both active and passive, that can shape the situation in various ways. The players can also directly attack each other; good luck playing defensively when your goalie is dead. Although the game is currently only available on Windows, the developers also plan to release on other platforms eventually. Mac is not one of them, but it is still possible to play Omega Strikers on Mac using the guide below.

Visage is a first-person game developed by SadSquare Studio in the genre of psychological horror. Explore a massive house warped by the horrors that took place in it. Rooms change once you leave them and enter again. Corridors don’t lead where they should. Ghosts haunting the mansion watch your every step from dark corners. They will attack if they sense the opportunity, but maintaining a high sanity score will stave them off. What could have happened here, for this place to alter reality so thoroughly? Madness has touched the minds of previous inhabitants, causing them to turn on each other, committing murder and suicide alike. How did this happen? Who – or what – was behind that? Explore this inhospitable place and uncover the answers, lest you perish and become one of the shadows in the corner yourself. Search for the clues to put together grisly stories of what has happened in the past; no matter how dreary the experience is, it is your only way out. The game is available on PS4 & 5, Xbox One & Series X/S, and Microsoft Windows. Although macOS did not receive official support, it is still possible to play Visage on Mac. Read the guide below for instructions.

Those of you sick of World War 2 games, rejoice. Isonzo, a game developed by M2H and BlackMill Games, does something different while staying within the genre of historical shooter. This game, along its companions Tannenberg and Verdun, comprise the WW1 Game Series, giving some attention to this – generally underappreciated by the media – time period. Isonzo in particular is named after the Isonzo river in Italy, a region that saw multiple battles over the course of World War 1. The game does not limit itself to these confrontations, however; it covers most historically important fights on the Italian Front. The mountainous terrain adds an element of verticality, but this is not the only way landscape affects fights in this game. Aiming for realism and accuracy, Isonzo requires its players to maintain cover, either via natural obstacles, or player-placed sandbags. Barbed wire can be placed too; this will slow your enemies down as they have to either circumvent or cut it with wire cutters. Of course, you will find yourself on both sides of this obstacle. With terrain based on real life, six different classes, and many other historically accurate features, Isonzo is a treat for any lover of historical shooters. Unlike Tannenberg and Verdun, however, Isonzo is not natively available on Mac. This guide will explain how to run Isonzo on Mac anyway, using third-party solutions.
