How to play Fate/Extra: Limited Edition on Mac
Game summary
Developed by Imageepoch and TYPE-MOON, Fate/EXTRA takes place in the Fate/Stay Night universe and features a cast of new characters and fan favorites, a unique battle system, and a grand story of destruction, absolution, and deep insight into what it means to be human. Some of the features of Fate/EXTRA include:
Intuitive Battle System: Using Block, Attack, and Guard Breaks in combination with Special Moves and Magic Spells, players will need to plan their attacks to emerge victorious from battle.
Engrossing Story: Written by the creator of the original Fate series, Kinoko Nasu, the game's story will not only appeal to long time fans of the Fate universe, but also to RPG fans looking for a deep, non-formulaic storyline that delves into mature themes as loyalty, death, love, and what it means to be human.
Extensive replay value: Multiple story paths, each with their own dialog trees and character interactions, will let the player experience the story from several different perspectives.
The North American Limited Edition will include some of the same sought-after items bundled with the Japanese version such as the special 15-page Fate Visual Works art book and the 10 song Limited Soundtrack.
First released: Dec 2011
Play Fate/Extra: Limited Edition on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Fate/Extra: Limited Edition 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).
