Game summary

In Galaxy in Turmoil, players take on the role of Roka, one of the galaxy’s most notorious mercenaries for hire, while she battles through the galaxy on a mission that will either save or destroy her universe. In multiplayer, players will assume the role of a soldier in one of three factions and battle for control in massive 64 player battles featuring full ground to space. Galaxy in Turmoil was originally being developed as a spiritual successor to Star Wars: Battlefront II, to be named Star Wars: Galaxy in Turmoil. It was however shut down by Lucasfilm, and the developers; Frontwire Studios took everything they had currently developed to make a different, though similar game, that features 64-player battles, ground-to-space combat, a single player mode, and removed the Star Wars name from the game.

Play Galaxy in Turmoil on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Galaxy in Turmoil 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).
