### Crimson Desert Launches March 19 on macOS Alongside PC, PS5, and More
Next week signifies an important moment for Mac users with the introduction of several new MacBooks. However, an even more thrilling occurrence is on the way: the debut of *Crimson Desert*, a much-anticipated AAA game, which will arrive on March 19 with a same-day macOS launch.
#### A New Age for Mac Gaming
Traditionally, gaming on the Mac has been behind the PC market, with numerous AAA titles either unavailable on macOS or released significantly later than on other platforms. *Crimson Desert* stands out as a notable exception to this pattern, launching concurrently on macOS, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and beyond.
Crafted by Pearl Abyss, *Crimson Desert* is an open-world action-adventure game that has sparked significant enthusiasm among gamers. The game can be pre-ordered on Steam, with the Standard edition priced at $69.99 and the Deluxe edition at $79.99.
#### System Specifications
Before finalizing a purchase, prospective players should verify the system specifications to confirm their Mac can support the game. Apple has previously emphasized that *Crimson Desert* will leverage advanced software technologies, such as MetalFX Upscaling, to enhance performance and provide high-quality visuals. The game will also utilize the M3 and M4 chip families, featuring ray tracing capabilities for a captivating gaming experience.
#### Excitement and Upcoming Announcements
Apple revealed last summer that *Crimson Desert* would be included in a slate of nine new games heading to the Mac. Considering the company’s previous promotion of the title, it is probable that it will make an appearance again during the upcoming announcement of the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips.
As the release date draws nearer, many Mac users are excited to delve into *Crimson Desert*. Are you excited to play this game on your Mac? Share your views in the comments.
