Game summary

As the twin-tailed comet arcs across the sky, those attuned to the Winds of Magic feel the air buckle with arcane energies. In torch-lit temple halls, fervent priests trace cobweb-threads of ancient geomancy, bowing their heads in fervent anticipation… All who know agree – a change is coming. From the thundering clouds of battle, a new god rears its scaled head. Sotek, the deliverer, god of Serpents and of War, has arrived. Truly an edition fit for a god, or at the very least a devoted high-priest, the Serpent God Edition comes wrapped in faux lizard skin, replete with stone effect glyphs modelled on Lord Mazdamundi’s headdress, detailing the temple-cities of Lustria.

Play Total War: Warhammer II - Serpent God Edition on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Total War: Warhammer II - Serpent God Edition 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).
