Play Resident Evil 3: Nemesis on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Resident Evil 3: Nemesis 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).

🕹 Editor's notes

Resident Evil 3 Nemesis is a survival-horror game released in the late 90s for the PlayStation. You will have to play the character of Jill, a woman who finds out she is the only one alive after zombies take over her city.

This game is one of the multiple versions of the Resident Evil series published by Capcom. This video game series has a cult following, just like its movie adaptations.

You have to escape the city to survive in this game, and whatever choices you make along the way will have an impact on the game’s story.

Plot:

You play the character of Jill Valentine in this game, a former agent. A virus suddenly spreads in her city and turns everyone into monsters. You will have to survive the onslaught of these monsters in the game.

Most people in the city have been transformed into zombies in her city because of this virus, and she has to make an attempt to escape the same fate as the other citizens.

She soon finds out that some evildoers developed the virus to get rid of the agents in her organization. As she goes in search of a way to escape, she meets several people who tell her that a chopper will come to rescue them if they reach a specific spot in the city.

After escaping the city, the place is blown off to bits and pieces. This places a seed of hatred in Jill towards the evildoers.
