COMPATIBILITY

Know what works for you.

PrivatePlay helps run Windows games on a Mac, but game compatibility varies. Some titles need different graphics settings or do not run because of anti-cheat, launchers, or hardware requirements.

The current build has been tested on an Apple M2 Mac. Among Us from Epic reached gameplay, though it showed a lighting issue. Other games need testing, and Windows Steam support is experimental. Read the test notes.
