The Frontline Impact

How this affects you

A small percentage of CrossOver users on Intel Macs or using 32-bit gaming bottles will no longer be able to use the latest version, potentially facing compatibility issues with older versions and updated games. This change is aimed at improving the app for the majority of users on Apple Silicon and newer macOS versions.
