macOS Compatibility

Compatibility layer Rating Notes
CrossOver Perfect Runs perfectly. [1]
Wine Playable Play on default Whisky settings for the smoothest gameplay (I encounter stutters and lag spikes on d3dC87 after 15 minutes of gameplay). Depend on what you play on, it is wise to lower the in-game settings to match your gaming setup. Boss Fight is steadily set in between 45-60FPS, but traversing through terrains can sometimes lag-spike and drop way down to 15FPS. [2]
Virtualization
Parallels Playable Game runs better than expected, however crashes whenever you open the graphics option in-game. To change graphics settings, go to "C:\Users\YOUR_NAME_HERE\AppData\Roaming\Sekiro" and edit "GraphicsConfig" to your liking.[3]

    Comment: Graphics have now been fixed by Crossover version 25.1.1 in late 2025 (using the "auto" graphics option in Crossover's Advanced Settings section). The lanterns on top of the buildings guiding your path leaving the burning Hirata Estate after first meeting Owl now render properly. Wolf's Night Eye works as it should in caves now, so they are no longer pitch black, and there are no more fps drops when fighting Headless due to the mist. Game runs perfectly with occasional minor fps dips.
