How to play KanColle Kai on Mac
Game summary
KanColle Kai is the Playstation Vita version of the popular Japanese online browser game Kantai Collection, where the player is put in charge of a navy consisting of moe anthropomorphisms of World War 2 warships known as "fleet girls". It introduces various strategy elements such as hexagonal maps, in addition to a new resource transfer and escort system. Some maps within the game will allow two separate fleets to operate simultaneously, and the player is able to change the tempo of the game. Existing functions from the original web browser game will also be present, with major user interface changes.

Play KanColle Kai on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play KanColle Kai 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).
KanColle Kai 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 KanColle Kai like you would on any PC.
