Grand Theft Auto V running on CrossOver 21 Nightly (2021-05-06) on a MacBook Air 2020 512GB with 8 GB RAM and 8 GPU cores. Framerate ranges betweeb 45-75+. The game runs much better than on Parallels (see the benchmark video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7hGtL4Uvjg). Multiplayer should not be possible, has not been tested.

Make sure to run on a Windows 7 x64 bottle.
