- Your macOS/OS X version must be 10.8 or greater
- Your Mac must support OpenGL 4.0 or greater (you can find out whether it does here)
- You must download the Magic the Gathering Arena Windows executable
- You must download makeMTGArena.zip and unzip it. It will create MTGArena.app, which is a custom Wineskin wrapper you can use to install MTGArena.
Note: If you're like me, you may not trust unofficial Wineskin wrappers. Unfortunately, the Wineskin project is way behind and only supports Wine 2.x. We need at least Wine 3.0 to run MTGA. If Wineskin ever gets around to updating, you can get the official download here.
Installing MTGA
- Drag the custom Wineskin wrapper to your
/Applications/
folder. - Right click/Control click the Wineskin wrapper (MTGArena.app) and select 'Open'
Note: The wrapper has 'Screen Options' and then 'Auto Detect GPU Info for Direct3D' unchecked and 'Use Mac Driver instead of X11' checked. If you complete installation of MTGA and are getting DirectX 11 errors, come back to this step and change these settings, but the defaults sjould work.
- Click 'Install Software'
- Click 'Choose Setup Executable'
- Navigate to and select the Magic the Gathering Arena Windows executable you previously downloaded ('MTGAInstaller_0.1.1615.720204.msi')
- Wait for MTGA to install and ignore any warnings (hopefully you won't have any!). When complete, click 'Finish'
- Back in Wineskin, a 'Choose Executable' window should be available. Select 'MTGA.exe'.
You can now click 'Quit' and start playing MTGA! If you'd like to add Retina support, carry on.
Adding Retina/HiDPI Support
- In Wineskin, click 'Advanced' and then select 'Tools'
- Click 'Registry Editor (regedit)'

I tried to launch MTGA and I get some error that crashes the program!
Again, the fix for this is already applied but I left the question in the FAQ, you should not have this issue with this wrapper.
This is a common issue with running MTGA in Wine. Close the program and wait a few seconds. It should work fine on the second attempt. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
If this really bugs you, here's a fix so that MTGA will launch perfectly every time:
- Right/control-click the Wineskin wrapper (MTGArena.app) and select 'Show Package Contents'
- Navigate to
Contents/MacOS
- Rename 'WineskinLauncer' to 'WineskinLauncher.bin'
- Create a new plaintext file in
Content/MacOS
and save it as 'WineskinLauncher'
Note: If you're using TextEdit, make sure you've turned off the option to add a .txt file extension.
- Paste the following inside of the new WineskinLauncher file:
- In Terminal, run
chmod 755 /Applications/MTGArena.app/Contents/MacOS/WineskinLauncher
There's an Arena update and nothing works anymore!

- Either unzip the empty Wineskin wrapper again (MTGArena.app) or right click MTGArena and select 'Show Package Contents' and click 'Wineskin' then click 'Advanced', then 'Tools', then 'Rebuild Wrapper'. You should now have an 'empty' wrapper again. Exit.
- Double click the MTGArena and select 'Install Software'
- Click 'Choose Setup Executable'
- Navigate to and select the Magic the Gathering Arena Windows msi file you previously downloaded
- Install as above.
