Idiot-proof walkthroughs for every method.
Using Parallels to play Lords of the Fallen means running a full copy of Windows 11 ARM inside macOS. This is the most "it just works" approach for games that don't behave under CrossOver, and DirectX 11 is hardware-accelerated. You'll need a Windows license and roughly 80 GB of disk space.
Streaming Lords of the Fallen through Boosteroid is the fastest way to start playing on a Mac β 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.
For most Mac players the best way to play Lords of the Fallen on Mac is Parallels. Full Windows 11 ARM inside macOS.
