Will macOS version be on steam or appstore exclusive?

[Auschi]

I'd like to know whether I should pre-order on appstore or just wait and buy on steam.

I'd love to know this too as I've been waiting for a long time to get this game.

No, Steam supports mac. It's also a violation of Steam's policy for a game to exclusive versions to other storefronts.

Sadly macOS version of resident evil and some other games are exclusively on mac app store...

--In regards to exclusivity—
Price parody is the policy. A game can’t be cheaper somewhere else.
Was done to combat Epic; people were selling on Epic cheaper to encourage sales on that storefront. The cut Epic takes is much less.

Overwatch 2, FF16, FF Remake. These games were on different storefronts long before Steam.
There are so many more examples it’s not even a question.

There’s also no policy stating that you must have a different OS version on Steam.
GoG has their new preservation program; older games that have been updated for current hardware. Exclusive to GoG.
Steam has the older versions available.

Sidenote, The Witcher 1&2 are now native for Apple Silicon on GoG, if you are Mac only.

I am really hoping to see the game come to Steam. I know you can add the game to Steam, but I don’t think it has cloud saves and you wouldn’t get the PC and Mac versions.
If Apple helped to fund it then it may be exclusive or a timed exclusive.
Although they helped with No man’s sky and that’s on Steam along with the AppStore. (No MAC version on GoG for that one)
