Valheim is now on Mac!

Today we’re happy to announce that Valheim is officially available for Mac! This is something that people have asked about ever since we launched into Early Access, and we’re glad to say that it’s finally time. Once again we’ve had the help of Piktiv, who have handled the port while we were continuing to focus on the Ashlands update.

The Mac version of course supports full crossplay with other platforms, and you can purchase your copy either via Steam or via the Mac App Store.

We won’t keep you with a longer announcement than this, so we just want to leave you with a brand new trailer, made specifically for the Mac release:

System Requirements:

Minimum:

OS: MacOS 10.13 or later
Processor: 2.6 GHz Quad Core or similar
Graphics: Radeon Pro 450 or R9 M290X

Available disk space: 3 GB

Recommended:

Available disk space: 3 GB

Hi thanks a ton for enabling the playing on macOS! It was long awaited and it works smooth!

However there's a problem to connect to dedicated server (we have one on g-portal) Everyone can connect but not me from macOS.

I've tried to disable the gaming mode, and private relay, still no luck, it's been like this since the beginning, g-portal stuff also tried all they can and now they out of ideas,

Could you please take a look at it, winter is coming and I would love to play Valheim with my friends.

here is my Player.log:
