Mac players may be feeling slightly left out due to Dear Esther being released today but not for them. Cry no more sweet child, for The Chinese Room have spoken in your favor via the great medium of Twitter!

Dan Pinchbeck responded to a rather miffed fan of Dear Esther who declared their disappointment at the absence of Mac compatibility despite the original mod supporting the platform. The tweet, as you can see here, from Pinchbeck announced for the first time that a Mac port was on the way:

“We can confirm a Mac port is on the way!”

This announcement even came as a surprise to Dear Esther‘s PR macho man, Lewis Denby, it seems – so surprises all around then!

Dear Esther is due to come out today on Steam (today being Valentine’s Day) at a price of $10 – our review will be up soon for you to ponder as well! The Mac version will presumable be along sometime soon.

More information on Dear Esther can be found on the official website.
