Arena Leaving Geforce Now. WOTC please fix!

Until WOTC releases a Mac client, Geforce Now is my best way to play Arena on my laptop. Sure, I could run Bootcamp or a VM, but this is a work issued laptop.

Geforce is switching to an ‘opt in’ policy regarding games and publishers. As of now, WOTC hasn’t opted Arena in. Apparently, it’s just a ‘yes’. Please fix, WOTC. I’ve been playing your game since early beta on the Geforce platform, and I spend money!

    We’re working with NVIDIA to ensure Arena stays available to players here.

    This is fantastic news. Thanks for following up and letting us know.

    I'm not sure if you can speak on it, but do you have any update on the timetable for when the Arena MacOS client will be available? Last I read, pre-COVID, it was Summer 2020.

    Like most folks in this thread, I play through GeForce Now because I am on a Mac but would much rather play it natively. Regardless, thank you again

    Nothing to say there now other than that we still feel good about that “Summer 2020” timing. Also, as a Mac gamer since around 1986, I get it. We hope to have more to say here before too long.
