Parallels Desktop 18 for Mac adds ProMotion support - Ars Technica

As with most updates to the suite, Parallels Desktop 18 adds support for new Apple hardware features, improves Windows virtualization, and expands compatibility.

The two headlining features of Parallels Desktop 18 are ProMotion support and several new features and optimizations for playing Windows games on Macs.

With Parallels Desktop 18, you can now sync Xbox or PlayStation controllers in macOS on your host system, then jump right in and use them in your Windows virtual machine.

The standard edition of Parallels also improves x86 application compatibility when virtualizing Windows 11 on ARM, and it improves USB 3.0 support with a specific focus on devices like game streaming hardware from Elgato.

There are two more editions of Parallels Desktop beyond the Standard release: Pro and Business.

Business includes everything from Standard and Pro but adds some IT-specific functionality like deploying, provisioning, and transferring Windows 11 VMs on Mac machines across your org, plus signing into Parallels with a corporate account via SSO/SAML authentication.
