Play Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on your Mac with CloudDeck
CloudDeck is a gaming PC in the cloud. It runs the game for you and streams it to your Mac.
CloudDeck runs Windows games the same way Valve’s Steam Deck does. On ProtonDB, where players report how games run on that technology, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II has the top rating, Platinum, based on more than 300 reports. Valve rates it Playable on the Steam Deck.
We haven’t measured frame rates for this game on CloudDeck.
Here is how to get started:
- Create your CloudDeck account and start your subscription.
- Install Moonlight , a free streaming app, on your Mac and connect to your CloudDeck.
- Log in to Steam and install Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.
- Start the game and play.
You need to own Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Steam. CloudDeck is available in Europe, the United States and Canada. The streaming app needs macOS 10.13 or newer.
Our help center has a step-by-step guide with screenshots for connecting with Moonlight.
Tips for playing on a Mac
Plan your disk space. The game needs 100 GB, and your CloudDeck comes with 250 GB. You can upgrade the disk to up to 1 TB.
You can play with a controller or with mouse and keyboard. Xbox and PlayStation controllers connected to your Mac work through Moonlight.
Valve’s Steam Deck test found some interface text small on the Deck’s screen. On a laptop, a higher streaming resolution helps.
Your saves are stored in Steam Cloud.
Set the right resolution. If you see black bars above and below the picture, the stream doesn't match your screen. For most MacBooks we recommend 1680x1050. Our guide on removing black bars shows where to set it.
Check your keyboard layout. CloudDeck starts with a US keyboard layout. If you use a German, French or other keyboard, some keys won't match until you change the layout.
If the picture stutters, connect your Mac by cable or 5 GHz Wi-Fi and turn off location services in macOS. There are more tips in our guide on lag and stutters.
To end a session, press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Q in Moonlight.
Other ways to play on a Mac
CrossOver is an app that runs some Windows games directly on your Mac, without streaming. It is a paid app with a 14-day free trial. CodeWeavers keeps a compatibility database where you can look up the current rating for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II before you buy. This is a demanding 3D game, so how well it runs depends a lot on your Mac.
We haven’t tested Kingdom Come: Deliverance II with CrossOver. It runs the game on your own Mac, so it costs less in the long run if it works for you. CloudDeck is the better choice if you want to skip the setup, or if you also want to play Windows games that need more power than your Mac has.
What it costs
CloudDeck costs $19.99 per month, and you can cancel anytime. We don't offer a free trial. If you're not happy and have used your CloudDeck for less than 4 hours, we'll refund you. You can sign up here.
