How do I fix "Launch Error Unsupported host machine architecture. (ARM64)?"

[Jumper Clean Xbox]

Hello, I was wondering if there was any way to fix "Launch Error Unsupported host machine architecture. (ARM64)." I have tried opening Apex through both Origin and through Steam and have gotten the same error code. I'm not sure what to do this is the only thing stopping me from playing. If there is anything I can do, or anything I can download please let me know.

The host machine is android?

I'm guessing...Mac user right? Apex doesn't support Mac OS.

Im actually on Windows 10 right now. I have the game downloaded and it comes to this point.

No it is not.

The is a strange issue. The system requirements only list Win 7, but I'm assuming that's just outdated.

Oh, check that your windows is 64 and not 32. Fastest way to check: Steam Client -> Help -> system information.

PC games are developed for x86 architecture. Apart from changing the CPU, not much you can do.

Try finding the game exe file and setting windows compatibility mode to something lower? Sometimes that has worked for me...

Just tried it no luck.

Again: you cannot run the game. Period.
You have a CPU that speaks in a different language than the game. You'd need an interpreter like Apple's Rosetta-2.

So if you are on a Mac, try running it on Big Sur or above. If that doesn't work, nothing will.

You can stream the game - please try Nvidia GforceNow - it supports Origin & Steam Apex Legends and runs very well on my Windows Arm64 PC. But there is also a native Mac OS X Client - also you can run it in Chrome Browser - https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce-now/

Please try it - you can test it without any costs, but have to wait for your slot / are limited for gameplay time, if you use a free account.

I have other x64 games running direct on my Windows arm64 PC - the new Windows10 insider Builds have a x64 emulation build in. But if the Launcher checks for the arichtecture, somebody would need to patch it.

THIS WORKED FOR ME:
(I am also running Windows ARMS on parallels mac m1)
since nobody has given this answer yet..

Run the game in anti-cheat mode disabled works for me
