How to run Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition - Windows on Mac with Parallels

Estimate· Compatibility

Step-by-step

  1. Buy / start a trial of Parallels Desktop.
  2. Install Windows 11 ARM via the one-click wizard.
  3. Inside Windows, install Steam / Xbox app and Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition - Windows.
  4. Enable DirectX 11 in Parallels settings for best 3D performance.

How to run Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition - Windows on Mac with Xbox Cloud Gaming

Estimate· Streaming

Streaming Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition - Windows through Xbox Cloud Gaming is the fastest way to start playing on a Mac — there's nothing to install, no Windows VM, no compatibility layer. The game runs on a remote GPU and your Mac just receives the video, which means even a base M1 MacBook Air can play the most demanding AAA titles at high settings. The tradeoff is that you need a stable internet connection (ideally wired or 5GHz Wi-Fi with 25+ Mbps down) and a subscription.

Step-by-step

  1. Get Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
  2. Open xbox.com/play in Safari, Chrome, or Edge.
  3. Search Little Nightmares II Enhanced Edition - Windows and click Play — no install required.
