How to play Until Dawn: Steelbook Edition on Mac

Game summary

When eight friends become trapped on a remote mountain getaway gone wrong, things quickly turn sinister and they start to suspect they aren't alone. Gripped by fear and with tensions in the group running high, you’ll be forced to make snap decisions that could mean life or death for everyone involved. Every choice you make while playing as each of the eight friends -- even the seemingly trivial ones -- will carve out your own unique story. Spine-tingling performances from a Hollywood cast including Hayden Panettiere are brought to life with the power of PlayStation 4 -- your actions alone will decide who survives Until Dawn. The Steelbook Edition contains the steelbook special case and an exclusive bonus scene.

Play Until Dawn: Steelbook Edition on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Until Dawn: Steelbook 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).
