If you don’t know how to play Lost Ark on Mac, we are going to help you out in this guide.

There’s a big hype, only 24 hours after its release Lost Ark has become the second most played in Steam history. If you want to play this trending MMORPG you can check system requirements here. Plus, if you want to know which classes are the best in the game right now, we’ve got you covered.

How to play Lost Ark on Mac?

To play Lost Ark on a Mac, you’ll need to install Windows 10 first. Boosteroid is another option for playing Lost Ark on a Mac through the cloud. Lost Ark is a popular MMO game and it is presently only accessible for PC, there hasn’t been a Mac version since its release, and it doesn’t appear one will be developed in the near future. We propose using cloud gaming to play Windows-exclusive games on Macs. Boosteroid, one such cloud gaming service, now has Lost Ark available in North America and Europe.

There are also rumors saying that the game will be released on GeForce Now. Of course, you may utilize the technique of first installing Windows on your Mac and then running the Windows version of Lost Ark directly on your Mac.

Lost Ark is now available on Boosteroid, making it easier than ever to play the game on Mac. In addition, it is expected that Lost Ark will be made available on GeForce Now in the near soon. The latest rumors suggest that the game will be live on GeForce Now on February 22, but Amazon Games haven’t confirmed anything yet.

For playing the game using Boosteroid, follow the steps we are going to mention below.

– Monthly Fee

BootCamp – Free to use any time

Play Lost Ark on Mac using Boosteriod

Make certain you buy the game from the official websites before playing Lost Ark. Boosteriod and Geforce Now are cloud gaming services that currently work with only Steam.

Register for Boosteroid, and that’s all there is to it. You may now add Lost Ark to your Cloud Gaming Library. After you’ve finished uploading the game, you can play it on your Mac, TV, or smartphone with no trouble. Follow these steps:

  • First, create a Steam account if you don’t have one.
  • Go to Boosteroid and create an account. You may also opt to register with your email address instead of Google. I had issues signing up for the service using my Google account, so I recommend establishing a new account rather than utilizing one you already have.
  • After you’ve created your account, log in to Boosteroid and access Lost Ark, and click on Play.
  • If you’re new to the service, a subscription prompt will appear where you’ll need to Select Subscribe, then pick a payment plan and payment method before filling in your account information.
  • Second, return to Boosteroid’s Lost Ark page and launch the game again. When prompted, log in with your Steam account after the initial loading period is over.
  • After you’ve completed the following steps, Lost Ark should launch straight in your current browser.
  • If you’re having trouble with Lost Ark’s gameplay or performance, and it isn’t due to a slow Internet connection, consider switching to another browser. Boosteroid is supposed to function best with Opera or Chrome.

Play Lost Ark on Mac using GeForce Now

When the game has been added to GeForce Now, you may play it there as well, therefore here is a brief tutorial:

  • First, create a Steam account if you don’t have one.
  • Enter GeForce Now’s official website, click on Join Now and select a plan, then register.
  • If you’ve chosen a paid plan, you’ll need to provide your payment information.
  • Open the site’s Download area, download the GeForce Now app for Mac, and install it.
  • Open the application and look for Lost Ark when it’s up.
  • After finding the game select its Steam version, enter your Steam credentials.
  • Then you will be able to play Lost Ark on Mac using GeForce Now.

As we’ve said earlier, Lost Ark is not available on Mac. That is why if you are not going to play the game with a cloud gaming service, your only option is to install Windows 10 on Mac using virtualization software like Parallels or Boot Camp Assistant.
