Can you play Phasmophobia on a Mac?

WorksUpdated

Short answer: Yes — a player has played it more than once, for over 10 minutes each time, on a Mac with Grapple.

What we know

Steam lists Phasmophobia for Windows only. Its minimum requirements call for DirectX 11.

Grapple translates DirectX 10 and 11 to Metal — through Apple's D3DMetal or the open-source DXMT — so on paper this is a reasonable candidate. That's an expectation, not a result — we haven't tested it yet.

It uses Anti-Cheat Pro (GuardingPearSoftware). AreWeAntiCheatYet, which tracks anti-cheat on Linux/Proton (Proton is built on Wine, like Grapple), lists it as running (it works there, but the developer hasn't officially enabled it).

Grapple settings

None that we know of: players report it works with Grapple's default settings.

Test record

No detailed record yet. The Works status comes from players: their reports below, and the players Grapple counts, anonymously.
