Game Details:
The Fortsbite 3 engine which drives Dragon Age Inquisition is currently not compatible with OS X. You don't have to buy a PC, however. A license of Windows 7 should suffice if your mac is up to spec. Edit: As stated below by Gorath, you can use software like Boot Camp to dual boot OsX and Windows.
Welcome to the Dragon Age Origins for Mac game page. This page contains information + tools how to port Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition in a few very simple steps (which even a noob can understand) so you can play it on your Mac just like a normal application. Check also one of the other over 1000 game ports on this website! Check the homepage to search and for latest news!
I recommend to buy the GOG.com version which is DRM free and works straight away out of the box. Used that version in the video. Click on the links mentioned here, create an account using the signup in the top bar on the GOG.com website and buy the game. You automatically get when creating an account 14 free GOG games (+ some dlc’s) added to your account so you have nothing to loose, only to receive!
Other Dragon Age Origin like ported games on the site are: Elder Scrolls V Skyrim, and Fallout New Vegas or Mount and Blade Warband.
Install is simple:
1. Get Porting Kit or Crossover if you don’t have it yet.
2. Then download the GOG.com setup files from Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition from GOG into your download folder.
3. Then in when you own Crossover use this CrossTie or when you use Porting Kit search the game on the library –> server tab and click install.
4. After installation of the game, “exit” the GOG installer.
5. Click “Play” to start the game! Have fun!

Yes, it’s finally here: Dragon Age Origin for Mac. On many request we have the game finally ported to Mac using Porting Kit or Crossover. The game is massive over 45 GB and is not recommended to play on low-end macs with Intel HD GFX cards but minimum with Intel Iris GFX cards or Nvidia or AMD Radeon with at least 512MB Graphical Memory. Because Dragon Age Origin is a massive game, the installation can take up 45 minutes depending on your system and if you have SSD or HDD in your Mac. I played the game for a bit on my Intel Iris iMac and there it runs very well in all low video settings. I am still optimizing the game, so there might be an update of the port in the near future. If so I let you know on the blog.
