You’ve got to hand it to Capcom, as the company is certainly putting real effort into releasing Mac versions of its games – or at least the Resident Evil series anyway. Resident Evil: Village was the first of the series to be released for the Mac, back in 2022, although that was actually the eighth game in the long-running series.
