By the best way to play on the M4 Pro

Native on the M4 Pro

These ship a native Apple Silicon build, so they run directly on macOS with Metal acceleration. The smoothest path when it is available.

Best via CrossOver or Game Porting Toolkit

No native build, but the Windows version runs well via a compatibility layer on Apple Silicon. CrossOver is the simplest paid option, with a 14 day free trial.
