There seems to be a new free to play MMORPG released every week these days, but even with the immense growth of the genre, very few MMORPGs are Mac compatible. Considering Mac users only make up for ~5% of the market share for operating systems, it’s not surprising that most game developers opt not to develop Mac compatible versions of their MMORPGs. The only MMORPGs Mac users can usually play are browser MMORPGs, but after Googling around for a bit, I learned that some client based MMORPGs are also Mac compatible. Below is a list of all Mac compatible MMORPGs that run on OS X:
One of the best shooter games that's available for Mac is Borderlands 2. It's a mashup of first person shooter (FPS) and RPG, so it's packed with a ton of action and, best of all, loot. Oh, that precious loot. In Borderlands 2, you'll be left for dead in the frozen world of Pandora. Users enter fascinating worlds with MMORPG games online. Participating in free MMORPGs online is incredibly simple. All you need is a computer and a stable internet connection. You can also find the right online MMORPG on your smartphone, tablet or console. Just check the NEWS section on mmogames.com! But why do so many users love these games?

MMORPG Games for Mac feature a wide variety of different experience for RPG lovers, and most of the successful projects feature cross-platform gameplay to be able to be a part of the whole game community. The operating system brings the modern protection and support for various hardware, and that helps the players to protect their accounts and customize graphics, audio, controls and other features as much as they want to. The convenience of iOS comes with many unique features for the supported games, and they are available to all Mac users.
