Rematch is a competitive 3D-person soccer game that’s quickly gaining attention, but if you’re a Mac user, you might be wondering whether you can actually play it. The short answer is no – there’s no native Mac version. But I’ve tested a few solid workarounds, and here’s everything you need to know.
Can You Play Rematch on Mac?
So, let’s get this out of the way: there’s no native Mac version of Rematch. You can’t just install it directly from the Mac App Store or launch it on macOS like you would on a Windows PC. That said, I didn’t stop there – I went through every alternative method I could get my hands on, and the good news is, yes, you absolutely can play it on a Mac. You just need to go through a cloud gaming platform.
The three main options I tried were Boosteroid, GeForce Now, and Xbox Cloud Gaming (XCloud). Each one works a little differently, and depending on your setup and priorities, one might be better than the others.
- Boosteroid turned out to be the best all-around pick. It works on every Mac I tested, even older ones, and you get access to the highest graphical settings without needing a crazy fast internet connection. Setup was fast, and it just worked.
- GeForce Now is a close second. It’s slightly pricier, especially on the premium plans, but you get more control over settings and performance. The free plan is solid for testing, though you’ll need better bandwidth.
- XCloud is more limited: no 4K or high frame rates, and it doesn’t support keyboard and mouse – only controllers. But with one subscription, you can play a bunch of games you don’t even need to buy. Great value if you don’t mind the trade-offs.
