Game summary
NRL Rugby League is a New Zealand-developed rugby sports game in the tradition of console based sports titles. It features 30 licensed teams, several major leagues and interantional test matches, 25 realistic stadiums, commentary by Andrew Voss, variable weather conditions, and all the action on the field you would expect from a game based on the sport, including advanced moves such as offloads, fend offs, side steps and dummy passes. You can create your own players, teams and competitions, with detailed statistics, and you have to take injuries, sin bins and send offs into account.

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