Unfortunately, Parallels Desktop for Mac doesn't support DirectX 11. From here:
Quote
Macintosh operating systems (macOS) do not support OpenGL Compute Shaders, which is a requirement to develop DirectX 11 support for virtual environment.

As of today, it is technically not possible to implement DirectX 11 support in Parallels virtual machines.


You should be able to use Bootcamp, if your GPU has hardware support for DirectX 11 under Windows.

Does it have full hardware support? The last time I tried running anything under Linux with Wine was years ago, with DirectX 9.

What GPU do you have?

Well, you have the hardware support, so it is just a question of whether Wine can provide access in OSX. A google search turned up a Russian Youtube video and related forum topic about getting it working under Linux, anyway.

I'm having the same issue, in parallels.

Kinda sucks, I was hoping to play it this way.
