Annapurna Interactive, a champion of unique gaming experiences, has just announced a delightful treat for Mac users: the acclaimed feline-centered game “Stray” will arrive on macOS through the Mac App Store and Steam, starting December 5.
A Silicon-Powered Purr-fect Adventure
Mac gamers have been eagerly awaiting their turn to explore “Stray’s” atmospheric cyberpunk realms. However, there’s a catch: the game requires an Apple Silicon chipset to run, leaving those with older Intel-based Macs to look to cloud services or alternative platforms to indulge in this whiskered wanderlust.

Gaming on the Grow for Apple Users
First released on PC and PlayStation in July 2022 and later on Xbox in August, “Stray” has quickly become one of the darlings of the gaming world, even catching the attention of Engadget’s discerning reviewers. Its transition to Mac aligns with Apple’s broader strategic push into the gaming sphere, signaling a potential shift in market dynamics in the Asia Pacific region, where Apple’s influence is considerable.
Big Titles Making Moves to Mac
The cat isn’t alone in its macOS journey. Gaming on Apple devices is receiving a new level of attention from prominent game publishers. Following “Stray,” the horror hit “Resident Evil Village” made its debut on the iPhone 15 Pro and certain iPad models just last week. The future promises even more, with heavy hitters like “Assassin’s Creed Mirage,” “Death Stranding,” and the “Resident Evil 4” remake all slated to enhance the Mac gaming ecosystem in the months to come.
