  As of right now Steam only has it available for Windows. Your only options, aside from purchasing a PC, would be installing a Windows OS or partitioning your hard drive with a Windows OS on one half.

  For whichever options you're interested in, Google would be a far better resource to explain it than me. Depending on what you use your Mac for, I wouldn't recommend a full switch over to Windows. You can look up partitioning. I know there's a handful of steps to it, but don't know what they are. And depending on what Steam's system requirements are, you may need to purchase a copy of Windows because free downloads may not be an option.
  
  Honestly, I'd say the effort required to play on a Mac isn't going to be worth it.

  Look up Parallels Desktop software for Mac. You can do it via Windows emulation in the Mac OS environment.

  Very carefully.

  If it is a modern Mac with ARM based processors, Parallels or Fusion won't work as the software is x86 only.
  
  I haven't heard of anyone trying Rosetta yet, and I don't have a Mac to try it out myself. I have heard reports of Easy Anti-cheat working on Rosetta for other games, but that doesn't mean MCOC will work, or be stable if it does. Some brave soul will have to give it a try and report back.

  Another to lookup is VMware Fusion as that is now free on Mac
  
  Have Kabam said we can run this in a VM?? Or does that class as an “emulator”

  I'm pretty sure running on vm or virtual os is likely to be considered as cheating. Wait until they release it for mac

  No official Mac support at this time. Partitioning a Mac with x86 architecture may do the trick but no guarantees on this side.

  If that's free I definitely need to look into that

  Heard that some software is free for mac but it is not stable, so I would stay away from that

  Can you provide any indication as to if and when there will be support for Mac?
  
  I'm on an older x86 model (2012 15-inch MBP) running MacOS 10.13.6. No plans to upgrade as there is software I am tied to that will not run on newer versions of the OS and I do not want to resort to piracy to be able to do work.

  Doubt your Mac would be able to run it anyway
