The Mac release of Baldur’s Gate 3 is a bit complicated.
Baldur’s Gate 3 has secured its place in the role-playing game hall of fame. It received dream ratings on both PC and PlayStation 5 – it’s clear that many would like to see a release on other platforms. It’s already confirmed for Xbox, but what about the Mac release?

Can I play Baldur’s Gate 3 on Mac yet?
Yes, with one big but: The Steam version, which is compatible with Mac OS, is still the early access edition of the role-playing game. The finished game is not yet available and you can use your saves not transmitted!
When will Baldur’s Gate 3 be released for Mac?
Larian has now officially announced that Mac support will be added together with Patch 3. The release date for the Mac version is September 21, 2023.
What are the system requirements for Mac OS?
You can find minimum and recommended requirements on the Steam shop page. But these still refer to the currently available early access version, the finished game will probably require more performance, as was the case on PC! You probably won’t be happy with 8 GB of RAM, especially later in the game.
