Welcome to the Lumiose Online installation guide. Lumiose Online supports four ways to play, all connecting to the same multiplayer server.

Choose Your Platform

Platform	Method	Requirements
Windows PC	ZA Recomp (Native)	Game version 2.0.2 and DLC
macOS	MonZaMac (Native)	Apple Silicon, macOS 15+, game version 2.0.2
PC (Eden)	Emulation	Game version 1.0.0 or 2.0.2

All four methods connect to the same Lumiose Online server, allowing players on different platforms to play together.
