Game summary

In Space Ops VR the year is 2301 and humanity has taken to deep space in the search for valuable resources to solve Earth’s energy crises. To that end, the Space Ops were formed as an elite cadre of first-responders ready to take on any task the galaxy can throw at them. As an enlistee, the player is tasked with familiarizing themselves with the arsenal and tactics of the Space Ops. This includes their array of specialist weaponry as well as the unique tactical teleport tool that helps them evade their foes. Rigorous training exercises packed with tough alien foes will put the Space Ops skills to the test. Players can complete these courses solo, cooperatively, or race head-to-head to get the highest score on global leaderboards.

Play Space Ops VR on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Space Ops VR 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).

Space Ops VR 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 Space Ops VR like you would on any PC.
