This will likely work in the same manner as Steam, in that once you own a license key for the game, you can then play that game on all supported platforms.
#BUY SIMCITY PC PC#
For select EA games (that are available on both PC and Mac), you can buy a title once on Origin, and when you log into Origin on either Mac or PC, that same game will appear in your newly unified (Mac/PC) My Games library. One new feature will be of particular interest for gamers who play on both PC and Mac machines: dual-platform play. The EA platform Origin does state that licenses for games available on both platforms will be transferable, though doesn't explicitly mention SimCity. The post on the EA forum that you linked (which seems to have died) did seem to indicate that this is the case, more specifically, that if you purchase the game via Origin, you will be entitled to play the game on either platform once the Mac version is released. You will be able to download and play the Mac version on June 11. You will then see SimCity on Mac in the “Add-ons & Bonuses” section. On your “My Games” page, hover over SimCity and click the info button. If you have purchased SimCity for PC, the Mac version has already been added to your Origin account. You will be able to play both versions with the same Origin account, allowing you to seamlessly continue cities, achievements and leaderboard progress across the PC and Mac. Via Origin, SimCity is cross-platform compatible, so all players will be able to play together across the same servers. If you have purchased SimCity for PC, either as a physical or a digital copy, you will receive the Mac version as a free digital download on Origin on June 11. SimCity will be coming to the Mac on June 11 as a digital release via Origin™. The SIMCITY for windows also includes some other freebe stuff like a terrain editor which lets you edit the terrain of a city. From what I can tell, the windows version is like only 15.00 so that is a farely good deal for a good game. This was confirmed by Maxis with a community wide email announcement on the 11th of April 2013 and has since been rolled out with the Mac release of SimCity: Well, since they redid the game, better hurry to your favorite pc gaming store and buy SIMCITY for WINDOWS.
