How to play KnightOnline on Mac

Game summary
Knight Online is one of the most popular free MMORPGs in the world. The main element for its enduring success is the game’s PvP elements. Besides the ongoing battle between the two races; humans and orcs, players can form clans and wage war against one another. Players earn ranks by killing members of the opposing race and can earn special Knight titles, cash rewards, and other benefits. Each of the two nations has several race choices but both share the same 4 class options. Many countries have their own KnightOnline communities, including America (USKO), Japan (JPKO), Europe (EUKO), Korea, and Malaysia (MYKO). Each server generally runs a different version of the game, with the server in America generally being the most up to date. Tons of unique loot and bosses help create a hardcore PvP-focused MMORPG where the main goal is to become the strongest player on the server!

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