| Native | A significant performance boost compared to the crossover. Even the base M1 chip can pull 60+ frames with low-medium settings. CPU, memory, and GPU resources are now managed effectively. Previously, 8GB models experienced memory bottlenecks. But now, with the maximum graphics settings, I barely saw memory usage exceed 5GB.[1] | |
| Compatibility layer | ||
| CrossOver | Solid 30 fps on M1 Pro with Crossover 23.5 and Heroic.[2] | |
| Wine | Game Porting Toolkit - the game must be run from Terminal, you must cd into the Control folder otherwise it'll complain of missing Data folder. Change the Control_DX12.exe to Control.exe and launch. Same fix works with heroic's staging build that allows use of Game porting Toolkit Wine. | |
| Virtualization | ||
| Parallels | Low framerates on M1 Mac but playable, make sure to launch DirectX 11 exe.[3]Unplayable.[4]Great framerates on medium settings with M1 Max.[5] |
