Gameplay Video

The Witcher 2 is incredibly over-ambitious in its vision, but somehow manages to achieve perfection in its execution.

The critically-acclaimed Witcher 2 is now available for Mac. As announced in their live broadcast, developers CD Projekt RED are big Mac fans, so bringing it to the Mac was a natural step. They’ve also warned that it’s very graphically intensive, so check the minimum specs:

Minimum system requirements (Mac): OS: OS X 10.7.5 or higher. OS X 10.8.0 or higher Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo Memory: 4 GB RAM Graphics: GeForce GT 650M 512MB (on 1440×900, low), Radeon HD 5770 1GB (on 1440×900, low) Hard Drive: 25 GB HD space, Please note: Nvidia is constantly perfecting the graphics drivers for Mac Book Pro with the Nvidia 650M Graphics Card. Until they provide an update the performance in the game on Macs with 600 Series nVidias may not measure up to usual levels.

The mature RPG will also be available (at some point) on Steam (as we previously found out), and comes with a host of goodies, such as the soundtrack, making-of videos and other bits and bobs.
