Re: Can I play star wars battlefront on a mac apple computer

@ryguypie123

SW:BF is not made to run on Mac OS.  If you had bootcamp with Windows, you might be able to.  However, I know alot of Macs are not that powerful, so I doubt you would be able to.  Can you post your PC specs and I will see if you are able to? (CPU, GPU, RAM)

    Hello @ABUJWAIYI3 

    I am really sorry, but Star Wars: Battlefront is currently only available on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

    Cheers,

    Idk. My iMac is more powerful than my pc, so I don't think it's about compatibility. I have a bootcamp, but it keeps crashing every minute, so that doesn't work so well.

    Hey guys, as mentioned in this thread, Star Wars Battlefront is not compatible with Mac OS.

    I don't want to start a discussion about PCs and Macs and which is more powerful, since they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Yes, you can install Windows via Bootcamp on a Mac and, if everyhting goes well, also play some games made for Windows PCs. I do have an iMac at home as well which plays some games that do not require a high-end build. However, due to some Bootcamp restrictions, you cannot update your drivers manually - you are bound to install the drivers Apple suggests.

    Therefore, you might be lucky and the game could run on your Mac - but since it's not officially supported, I cannot say "Yes, it will run on this and that Mac" since it might not.

    Hope that clears things up a bit. Have a great day.

    Then, what is this?: "Xbox, PlayStation 2, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS, Xbox 360, Xbox One"?
    See? It clearly mentions Mac OS, so...
