XCOM: Enemy Unknown invading Mac
by Alice O'Connor, Feb 26, 2013 11:15am PSTIf you're a Mac owner whose stubborn refusal to dual-boot Windows has kept you from playing one of 2012's best games, good news: XCOM: Enemy Unknown is coming to you. Port publisher Feral Interactive today announced it's bringing Firaxis's turn-based tactics 'em up to Mac this spring with the DLC included.
Feral's 'Elite Edition' of Enemy Unknown will contain the so-so Slingshot DLC, which cost $7, the $5 Elite Soldier pack and all its customization options, and the big free Second Wave DLC.
If you do own a Mac and have already bought XCOM for Windows, bad news. It's highly unlikely that Feral will bring it to Steam to give you a free SteamPlay copy--the publisher does want and deserve to make money off its hard work, after all.
Feral plans to announce the price and system requirements closer to XCOM's spring Mac launch.

Boooo for not bringing it to Steam. I have a PC and a Mac, and already own it and I WOULD PAY for it again to get it on the Mac via Steam. Can't they use Steam without the "SteamPlay" feature? At least use the delivery platform it's already on. Don't make me have to go buy a 2nd disk somewhere. That's just stupid.
