CrossOver is finally ready for Apple Silicon
Cross-platform app compatibility tool CrossOver was designed to work on Intel Macs and could only work on newer M-series models thanks to Apple’s Rosetta 2 translation layer. Apple put developers on notice in June 2025, warning them that they would need to build apps designed without needing Rosetta 2 before 2027’s big macOS software update.
Since then, the developers of CrossOver have been working to get ready for the big transition. It announced in June 2026 that CrossOver 27 would ditch support for Intel Macs and transition fully to Apple Silicon.
