EMERGENCY 20 for Mac coming December 2017
EMERGENCY 20 is already out on Steam, now we are working on finishing up the version for Mac. And we are especially happy that – for the first time – we can offer a macOS version here on Steam.
EMERGENCY 20 for Mac will in all likelihood be available in December 2017.
With EMERGENCY 20, Mac users will be able to enjoy the 10 re-imagined classic missions and our developer videos. The macOS version will include all the campaigns, free play and multiplayer maps of the pc version, but will not support modding.
Mac users who own EMERGENCY 5 or EMERGENCY 2017 can also look forward to a new patch.
