Minecraft Legends is one of most anticipated releases of April 2023. It's a wildly different take on the franchise, with most of the pressing questions cleared up with our recent Minecraft Legends review. But if you're interested in getting the game but don't own one of the listed platforms, you may need to read up on the idea of Minecraft Legends on Mac before you get too excited.
In this article, we'll explore the idea of Minecraft Legends releasing on MacOS and a myriad ways you can get around the current issue without investing in any new hardware. Cloud gaming doesn't suit every type of game, but this is one of the rarer exceptions to the rule.
