Ultima 9 – Ascension for Mac
On many request, it’s added…Ultima 9 – Ascension for Mac! The rest of the series on GOG.com are already native for Mac (DOS ports), but this one was missing in the series. And now with this Porting Kit port, you can complete your Ultima collection on your Mac :) The game is of course also tested and working on Catalina 10.15.x. Enjoy!
We always recommend having besides Porting Kit also Crossover as alternative. Crossover is more advanced, supports DX11 and has phone support other features. Crossover makes Porting Kit possible and when purchasing Crossover using the links here you support us with out work with Porting Kit.

Game description:
The ninth installment of the Ultima series takes a leap into a vivid, detailed 3D environment that adds a whole new level of interaction to the exploration of the realm. Britannia was always one of the most life-like, well-developed, king-sized virtual lands, but this new perspective makes the experience of “living” in it much more immersive. The combination of a story of epic proportions, solid mechanics–true to the classic cRPG spirit, and that achingly familiar Ultima setting, Ultima IX: Ascension a memorable title that all role-players should experience for themselves.
