The Mac version releases in two weeks and we still don't know the system specs. I have two Mac wielding friends who would like to play but for obvious reasons don't want to purchase a game that may or may not work on their computers.
Any word on when these will be finalized and posted?

Strange it wouldn't just be the same hardware wise as the Windows version. Not like Mac makes hardware magically work better.

I guess it's the same as Windows as well but maybe they're going to give more details based on the apple marketing. Like "Every Macbook produced after 2013 with at least 1.2 Ghz" as example. I wouldn't expect it though.

It'd just be nice to know... As I'm going to have to be the one to tell them if it will work or not :/

Would have loved to have known but unfortunately my macbook fried a month ago so it'll be a while before I can replace it, probably not until next tax time.

Thanks Madsamurai! I remember I played it with bootcamp on my macbook air, which has some years on his shiny shoulder, the first month and worked fine. So it will run for sure on nearly every younger Mac but well.. Official words are the best.
