Total War: Warhammer 2 on Mac: Everything you need to know
Feral Interactive was in charge of the game’s MacOS and Linux versions, and as was the case with the latest Total War Saga, this is yet another solid Mac port powered by Metal 2.
Powered by Metal 2
As with every other port from Feral Interactive, you can expect all the same features and visuals as the Windows version. Plus, because of the use of Apple’s newest Metal 2 graphics API, performance should be much closer than on Windows than before. Read on for the detailed system requirements but expect Mac benchmarks soon.
Cross-platform multiplayer
Cross-platform multiplayer is the only feature where Mac version and Windows version differ from each other. While Feral did manage to support cross-platform multiplayer between Mac and Linux, the Windows version is excluded. That is definitely a shame as the majority of gamers are on Windows and that means finding online matches will be more difficult.
Hopefully, this will change in the future and Feral will manage to bring cross-platform multiplayer between Mac, Linux, and Windows. This is purely speculation at this time but if Aspyr managed to do it with Civilization 6, anything is possible.
