Game summary

The Zenith Remnant is AI War's first expansion, and focuses both on adding capturable units and a new minor faction called the Zenith to the game. Arcen maintains an exhaustive list of features, but highlight features are as follows: * Golems, which have many similar properties to Supreme Commander's "Experimentals". * Several new base ship types, further expanding on the available choices for the player as well as making the AI a more devious opponent. * New AI types that took advantage of many of the capturables introduced, as well as some that use Zenith ships. * Over 40 minutes of new music tracks composed by Arcen Games' composer, Pablo Vega. * A new class of "Experimental" ships that offer abilities one would not ordinarily find in AI war ships.
First released: Jan 2010

Play AI War: The Zenith Remnant on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play AI War: The Zenith Remnant 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).
