Play Arknights: Endfield on Mac (Apple Silicon M1 / M2 / M3 / M4 / M5) including a fix for the infinite / stuck loading screen and optional mouse + keyboard controls on macOS Tahoe using PlayCover (Latest vs Nightly).

Arknights: Endfield is a free-to-play action RPG set in the Arknights universe from Hypergryph (the developer behind Arknights), with a mix of real-time combat and base / factory-building systems (plus gacha style progression). No native Mac client? No problem: this guide shows how to run the iOS version on Mac with PlayCover.

âś… What this Mac tutorial covers:

Install PlayCover on macOS (and fix the “Apple can’t verify” message)

macOS Tahoe key mapping fix: use PlayCover Nightly if you need mouse & keyboard

Import the game into PlayCover and launch it

Fix the never-ending load screen / beach ball freeze (don’t click—wait ~60 seconds)

Login/setup note: Apple Sign-In doesn’t work in PlayCover

Enable mouse and keyboard with a PlayMap / keymap

Cursor tip: press Option to toggle your mouse cursor back on/off

🎮 Controller players: the game has built-in controller support, so you can play normally once you’re in.

Apple Silicon only: This method is for M-series Macs (MacBook Pro/Air, iMac, Mac mini, Mac Studio). If you’re on Intel Mac, you’ll need a Windows approach (ex: Boot Camp) or the PC version.

  1. Note that the game has been working off and on as the developers change things in the background. I will do my best to keep this pinned comment updated with the latest fixes

    Edit: Fix for the jailbroken device error

    1. Open Arknight: Endfield
    2. follow the step at the 2:52 Timestamp
    3. once you click tap to continue, immediately press command + K (Open Keymap Editor) before the jailbroken error pops up
    4. Wait until the Jailbroken pops up, then press CMD + K again (Close Keymap Editor)
    5. the jailbreak error willl dissapear and the keymapping will also dissapear. press the option button on your keyboard to get your mouse back

  2. im getting a notification saying that my device has been jailbroken, yesterday i was able to play with no problem, is there a way to stop this from happening
