Paralives is currently available through Steam for Windows and Mac systems using Apple processors. It is a single-player game and ordinary play does not require an internet connection.

Steam services such as installation, updates, Workshop downloads and Cloud synchronization do require connectivity. Platform support should be confirmed against the store before purchase because Early Access requirements can change.

Steam does not currently mark full audio or subtitles in its language table, so this site does not claim them.

Windows and Apple Silicon Mac

The official requirements list Windows 10 or 11 configurations and macOS Big Sur 11 or newer with an Apple processor. The minimum Mac processor listed is M2. Intel Mac support is not listed, so do not infer it from the word Mac alone.

Single-player and offline use

The official FAQ states that Paralives is single-player and does not require an internet connection to play. Initial download, Steam authentication behavior, updates, Workshop changes and Steam Cloud synchronization are separate online functions.

These official images are paired with the feature they demonstrate. Historical captures are explicitly labeled and are not used to claim an unchanged 2026 interface.

Eight current interface languages

The current store lists English, French, Italian, German, Polish, Portuguese — Brazil, Spanish — Latin America and Simplified Chinese for the interface. Full audio and subtitles are not marked on the store table, so this site does not claim them.

No current console, phone or tablet version

The official FAQ says there are no console plans at the moment, although consoles may be considered in the future, and states there will be no phone or tablet version. Consideration is not an announced platform, port or release date.
