Just got my new MacBook Pro M1 and the installation works fine but the game doesn’t start. It crashes instantly. Any chance for an update in the future? The same goes for Warcraft 3 by the way…

There does seem to be some issues with the new Macs that are being investigated and worked on, however I did find this post from our Mac forums for SC2 (which should also apply to SC:RE and WC3:RE for now): https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/sc2/t/starcraft-2-system-hangs-on-m1-apple-silicon-macs/18818
So you need to find the WC3:Reforged and SC:Remastered settings in your Library and see if adjusting this line works.
Thank you! I don’t have any Starcraft or WC3 folders in the Application Support folder. I can only see a “Battle.net”, “Starcraft II” and “Telemetry”. Where can I find the variables for SC and WC3?

There might be something else we can try. If you set Starcraft to start with Rosetta: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861
It might work with that.
SC still won’t start, but WC3 finally works!

The “Open in Rosetta” option doesn’t show up in the app info.
Thats because that particular option only shows up with universal apps, for intel and apple silicon

No news (other than what I previously posted), though the discussion is still also happening on the US forums for Mac Users: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/sc2/c/mac-technical-support/16
You can also post there and add your voices to the thread on the front page.
Do you have an ETA for this or it’s just not going to happen?
Thank you very much

Just wanted to confirm that this is still an issue, but Blizzard are seemingly aware of it. There’s a good topic about this on the US SC:RM Technical Support forum here:
Application crashes immediately at startup.
I have followed a few suggestions I found on these forums and elsewhere to get this to work.
- I tried renaming my Mac to a simple single word with no special characters - no effect, still crashing on startup.
- I lowered my screen resolution, no effect.
- I attempted to disable vsync following instructions online, however it seems like the instructions were written for Starcraft 2 and don’t apply to Starcraft Remastered, and so I was unable to perform the “fix”.
Hoping that Blizzard notices this and gets it fixed - it’s the only application I have that doesn’t run flawlessly on the M1.
For Blizzard devs, I’ve included the stack trace for the crash below. I hope that this is helpful.
