Game runs generaly fine on apple silicon. There is one issue with the DS4 controller that couldn't be detected though. The workaround for that issue is to use a more recent build of libSDL2.dylib with fixed rpath and replace the one found in the game with the new one. The maintainer of wineskin, [https://github.com/Gcenx gcenx] made such a version of libSDL2, and thus, one quick way to get the file is to download latest [https://github.com/Gcenx/WineskinServer/blob/master/Wrapper/Wineskin-2.9.0.7-rc4.app.tar.7z Wineskin wrapper]  and grab the <code>libSDL2-2.0.0.dylib</code> from it. (show package contents, search for 'sdl') copy that file on your desktop, rename it to just: <code>libSDL2.dylib</code> and copy it into <code>Dying Light/DyingLightGame.app/Contents/Frameworks/</code> replacing the previous one. An interesting thing to note: that fix may also work with other SDL2 games with dysfunctional controller support.
