Get a PC - Mac isn’t meant for gaming.
Even Linux machines are better for gaming than mac.

Partition your drive, my friend games that way on his Mac.

You sir speak the truth. Macs were never designed or intended for gaming.

Game Director Jeff Kaplan did say this about the game coming for Mac in 2017:

Lead Engineer Bill Warnecke also responded to a similar question about Linux:

@BillWarnecke

Hey there! While many of us on the development team love Linux we are not currently looking at adding native support.

Dealing with the code changes required to support another platform is one challenge. Outside of the Overwatch code itself we would have to work with internal and external teams to update libraries we depend on. Tools like the [Battle.net ](http://Battle.net) desktop client would also require changes.

On top of all of the above we’d have to split our QA time to make sure we put the same level of quality and polish into the Linux version as we do for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox one… and this has to happen for every patch we put out.

We learned with death match to never say never, but for right now native Linux support isn’t a focus for the team.

Cheers!

Use Apples Bootcamp to run windows on your iMac. It wont run as well as native MacOS but it will allow you to game on it. But do tons of research for compatibility and such to make sure you dont have any issues.

Download Bootcamp and download Overwatch on the Windows Partition. Ez Pz. it might be really bad quality but atleast it’s playable.
