Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is finally here, and I couldn’t wait to dive in. But if you’re using a Mac like me, you’re probably wondering—can we even play it? Not natively, no. But I’ve tested all the available workarounds. Here’s everything I found, with plenty of hands-on detail.

Can You Play Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Mac?

There’s no native Mac version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, unfortunately. But that doesn’t mean you’re completely out of luck. There are alternative methods: Boosteroid and GeForce Now both work. CrossOver and Whisky? Not right now—both throw errors. Bootcamp might work on very specific Intel Macs, but I couldn’t test it.

TL;DR for each method:

  • Here’s a quick breakdown of which method might work best for you, depending on your setup and preferences:
  • Boosteroid: Great for users with stable internet and minimal setup needs—just log in and play. Best for casual to moderate gamers.
  • GeForce Now: Ideal for users who want higher graphical fidelity and already own a decent game library across platforms.
  • CrossOver & Whisky: For tech-savvy users who like experimenting and don’t mind failure—these might work eventually, but not right now.
  • Bootcamp: Only worth considering if you already own a high-end Intel Mac. Otherwise, skip it.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Mac – Performance

Trying to get Kingdom Come: Deliverance II running is one thing—getting it to run well is a whole other story. If you’re wondering which method actually delivers a playable experience on Mac, I’ve got you covered. I tested each option personally, checking for stability, visual quality, input lag, and overall performance. If you want to know what’s smooth, what’s clunky, and what’s just a waste of time, this section breaks it all down in detail.

Streaming Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on MacBook With Boosteroid

I started with cloud gaming, since it’s the easiest way to jump in without messing around with wrappers or settings.

On Boosteroid, the game ran surprisingly well—smooth 1080p at 60 FPS most of the time, as long as my connection stayed stable. I used an Xbox controller, and the input felt responsive enough to enjoy the combat. Just make sure your ping to their servers is low, and you’re on IPv4—I had some hiccups with IPv6 until I switched.

Then I tried GeForce Now, which also delivered solid performance. It looked sharp and played smoothly, especially over Ethernet, though I had to re-link my game accounts before launching. Both platforms handled the game impressively, and either one is totally viable if you meet the internet requirements.

Honestly, for anyone not wanting to tinker endlessly, cloud gaming is the easiest way to get into Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on a Mac right now.

Attempting to Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Mac With CrossOver and Whisky (Failed)

I spent a good chunk of time trying to get Kingdom Come: Deliverance II running with both CrossOver and Whisky—and so far, absolutely no success.

On my M3 Max MacBook Pro, I used CrossOver 24.0.7 with GPTK 2.0, and while the game technically “launched,” all I ever saw was a black screen. No errors, no progress—just the logo, and then nothing.

Whisky wasn’t any better. I tried multiple configurations, verified game files, and even messed around with DXVK and D3DMetal settings. Still, all I got was a crash right after the loading splash screen or a hanging black window with occasional log spam and fence timeout errors.

Some people are digging deep into logs, tweaking shader cache files, and even attempting DX11 hacks, but nothing reliable has surfaced. That said, these tools are in active development, and there’s a good chance future updates could make things work. But right now? It’s just not there yet.

Download Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Mac With BootCamp – Is it Even Worth It?

If you’re still on an Intel-based Mac and thinking about Bootcamp, running Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is technically possible—but only on very high-end configurations. You’d likely need something like a 2019 iMac with a dedicated Radeon Pro GPU, or a maxed-out Intel MacBook Pro with an eGPU setup.

Even then, don’t expect miracles. The game demands a lot: 16 GB RAM minimum, a solid GPU, and an SSD. On these machines, medium settings at 1080p might be playable, but frame drops and thermal throttling are almost guaranteed.

Bootcamp could work in theory, but honestly, it’s a niche option. Most users are better off sticking to cloud gaming services like Boosteroid or GeForce Now unless they already have the exact Mac and time to tinker. Otherwise, it’s more trouble than it’s worth.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Mac – Conclusion

So yeah, if you’re on a Mac and dying to play Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, you’ve got a few paths—but none of them are perfect. Cloud gaming is the real winner here, especially Boosteroid and GeForce Now. They just work. CrossOver and Whisky? Not yet. Maybe soon, but right now they’re just black screens and bug reports. Bootcamp? Technically possible, but realistically not worth the grind unless you’ve got a rare, powerful Intel Mac lying around. Hopefully, native or Wine-based support improves over time, but for now, streaming is the cleanest way to get into the game without losing your mind.
