Trine 2 is getting both a Mac and a PC version, and developer Frozenbyte is going to see if they can play together nicely. The Steamworks version of the game will offer cross-platform multiplayer support, the studio said in a news release.
A newly released Mac beta, available to all who preorder the game, will allow players to test out the feature now. The game itself will be available later this year on aforesaid PC (Steamworks) and Mac, and also PlayStation Network and Xbox Live. It’ll cost $US14.99. The DRM-free Trine 2 releases next year.

There are very few games that play cross platform and comnig from an indie dev to boot is very exciting.
This is a pleasant surprise.
