How to run Lords of the Fallen on Mac with Parallels

EstimateΒ· Compatibility

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.

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 Lords of the Fallen.
  4. Enable DirectX 11 in Parallels settings for best 3D performance.

How to run Lords of the Fallen on Mac with Boosteroid

EstimateΒ· Streaming

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.

Step-by-step

  1. Create a Boosteroid account and pick a plan.
  2. Use the web client or download the macOS app.
  3. Add Lords of the Fallen from their library (you'll need to own it on Steam/Epic).
