The long awaited demo of Ubisoft’s Anno 117: Pax Romana has now been released on Steam and although there’s no version for macOS, the good news is it should be playable on Macs via Crossover.
The game is only available on PC, PS5 and Xbox but you since you can already play Ubisoft’s older Anno 1800 game on a Mac with Crossover via Steam, it’s likely Anno 117: Pax Romana will work as well as it is also available on Steam.
Crossover is an emulation layer that allows you to run Windows games on a Mac without actually having to install Windows.
For more on what it can do, check out our full Crossover review.
You can also download a free trial to test it for yourself.
It may also be possible to play Anno 117: Pax Romana using Whisky and the Apple Game Porting Toolkit which are based on the same technology as Crossover and both free although not as easy to setup and use.
Unfortunately, it won’t be playable via Xbox Cloud on a Mac as the game won’t be released on it – at least not immediately.
In the meantime, enjoy the trailer for Anno 117 below if you haven’t already seen it.
