bo2-mac turns your own Steam copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops II into a native ARM64 Mac app, with no Wine, Rosetta or virtual machine. It statically recompiles the game's 32-bit x86 code ahead of time and draws Direct3D 11 through Metal. Campaign, solo Zombies and multiplayer against bots run at 51 to 60 fps on an M1. No game files are included: you must own the game on Steam. Beta, local play only, Terminal install, about 1h45 of conversion. GPL-3.0.

    Black Ops II never came out on Mac, and on Apple Silicon neither Rosetta nor CrossOver runs it. bo2-mac translates the game's code once, ahead of time, into a native app, and the maker measures 51 to 60 fps on a base M1. It is a beta and still technical to set up: you need your own Steam copy, and you have to prepare the decrypted executables yourself, since the project ships no game files and no tool for that step.
