Apps can transform the way you do anything you’re passionate about, whether that’s creating, learning, playing games, or just getting more done. And the App Store is the best place to discover new apps that let you pursue your passions in ways you never thought possible.
Designed for discovery.
Mar 12, 2017 If the game you want is there and your Mac has the hardware to run it, it will run. The quality of macOS’ game selection depend on what games you like to play. AAA first person shooters are especially underrepresented. None of the recent Call of Duty or Battlefield games are available on macOS, but other genres.
Tabs in the App Store make it easy to discover new apps you’re going to love. And to learn more about the kinds of apps you already love.
