Game summary
Come get the deal of the decade with the 3D Realms Anthology.
With 32 classic titles - which is almost every Apogee and 3D Realms game ever released - and a re-rockestrated soundtrack by Interceptor Entertainment's Andrew Hulshult (Rise of the Triad, Duke Nukem 3D: Reloaded, Brutal Doom), the 3D Realms Anthology is your chance to kick ass in the past for an absolutely killer price.
Get your copy of the 3D Realms Anthology before December 31st, 2015. The Anthology will be discontinued in 2016 and will never again be available in this form. This is your last chance to grab a piece of gaming history and at a strongly reduced price for the rest of the year!
First released: Oct 2014
Play 3D Realms Anthology on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play 3D Realms Anthology on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
3D Realms Anthology installation steps for Mac
Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install 3D Realms Anthology like you would on any PC.
