CrossOver Now Available for Linux ARM64 as Preview Release<\/strong><\/p>\n

CrossOver, the software that enables users to run Windows applications and games on Linux and macOS via a Wine-based frontend, has launched a preview version for Linux ARM64 devices. CodeWeavers, the company behind CrossOver, reported strong performance metrics for x86 games running on ARM64 setups.<\/p>\n

The development of ARM support began with the release of Wine 8.0 in 2023, paving the way for this update. The subsequent release of Wine 9.0 in 2024 introduced additional functionalities like running native Windows ARM binaries and emulating 32-bit code. The anticipated Wine 10, expected early next year, will further enhance these capabilities with support for emulating 64-bit code.<\/p>\n

Initial tests conducted on a high-performance System76 Thelio Astra, equipped with an Ampere Altra Max M128039 processor and an NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti GPU, yielded promising results. For example, the game Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> achieved an average of 120 frames per second (FPS), while Hades II<\/em> hit 60 FPS and Path of Exile<\/em> reached 260 FPS.<\/p>\n

However, it is important to note that these performance metrics come from a powerful machine, and users running less robust setups, such as a Raspberry Pi 4, should not expect similar results.<\/p>\n

Beyond gaming, CrossOver serves as a practical solution for enterprises looking to migrate Windows workloads to Linux, which can enhance security and reduce system bloat. Although some may criticize the reliance on Windows binaries instead of native Linux applications, the reality is that many businesses depend on such software for reasons that include cost, familiarity, and integration with existing tools.<\/p>\n

With the latest trends in ARM-based laptops and desktops, there is hope for improved compatibility for these devices within the Linux ecosystem. Users with capable ARM hardware, or those eager to test the software, can sign up for the CrossOver Preview release, which includes ARM64 support.<\/p>\n
