How to play Onmyoji Arena on Mac

Game summary

Onmyoji Arena is part the hit Onmyoji series from NetEase. It builds on the rich character base from the original work to create a new MOBA experience. The game retains the elegant Japanese aesthetics and original voice talents to faithfully recreate Kyoto in the Heian era. With innovative map designs, a Fog of War mode, and an even larger set of Shikigami skills, players are in for more fun and greater challenges as they battle to reign supreme. The paid amulet system is now replaced by a free Onmyodo system. This levels the playing field. Players from all over the world are connected, and the all-new 3v3v3 Battle Royale will provide players with a fun and novel MOBA experience.

Play Onmyoji Arena on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Onmyoji Arena 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).
