Epic Games does not support mac OS
I have the game on EGS and I have a mac. While Steam supporting the game on mac OS, EGS does not. Do you have any suggestions for me to be able to play it.

I would suggest that in the future you check before buying a game on a platform that they do support your OS first.

Still I find it a bit odd that one platform supports Mac and the other doesn't, seeing as the program itself defines it's compatibility and not a glorified shop.

Why do you even have the game on EGS? Did you buy it or get it when it was free?

You'll either have to buy the Steam version, or install bootcamp/Windows on your Mac to play the EGS one.

Why are you using EGS? That piece of malware is never going to work given they'd rather spend their billions on stealing games than actually making a decent platform

Thanks all to you guys. Yes i got it from egs when it was free. I succeed to open the egs interface and play through geforce now, even though i cannot save the game on any local device or cloud service. Guess ill buy it from steam.

you can also try a dual boot to some linux that works? Seems like a lot of trouble, but it may work.
