Switch Games to mac

[Karthik_k10]

I am currently using steam on windows 10. I have already purchased some games and playing. I am planning to buy mac book. So if i use same steam account, will be able to install and play same games in mac?
Please advise

Your games are account linked and you'll be able to play nearly all the games that your macbook literally can play i.e (there is a mac version in existence and your macbook meets the spec requirements).
A few exceptions exist, but not that many.

Unfortunately the catalog of games on the Mac is very small, and with a new ARM processor on the way, I'm not too sure if it wise to buy a MacBook for gaming. But it sounds like you're just going to play very lightly, and if you still buy an Intel MacBook, you can Boot Camp to Windows to play the entire catalog of games on Windows (that's what I do).

The games that you purchase on steam are linked to your account, so you'll be able to access them across different computers (regardless of operating system)

Though the majority of games are exclusive to windows, so keep that in mind and check which games you have that will be supported on Mac OS before switching.

You can run the ones that have Mac versions natively on Mac through Steam. Or you can fire up BootCamp and play them all under windows on your MacBook.

hi

[Kapo]

if play game is your heighly priority(according to how long your play time) .
Don’t do that. Otherwise, you are leaving your lovely game.

i am using MacBook 5 year , And i Love Play game.
Window for Game, MacBook focus on Work .
Which one you are care about mostly?

So much game in the Window.
the core reason . i think , Is PC can change graphic card.
but macOS can’t cheaply and easily .
So game maker choose PC and Window.
Not Mac and macOS.

Don’t use BootCamp in the laptop and play game.
it will hurt battery so much.
BootCamp should use in Mac’s desktop type,
like iMac etc.(they don't connect battery.)

Stick with your PC. If you plan on getting a MacBook for other reasons, go for it, but don't expect it to run every single game.

You will not need to re-buy them, your purchased games on Steam are connected to your account, so as long as you log in with the same account, your games are still there.

See my other comment (quoted below) for more detail.

Just open the Steam app on your Mac and check if there are Mac ports for your games. In that case you can install them. Otherwise you have to install Bootcamp but I hear that it will drain your battery and is only good for desktops.

If it's only available for Windows it won't work unless you use Bootcamp to install Windows on the Mac as a dual-boot.
