Ankama Launcher
Ankama Launcher is a gaming portal and launcher application that provides access to Ankama's collection of video games, including popular MMORPGs like DOFUS and WAKFU. The launcher serves as a centralized hub where players can download, update, and launch Ankama's games, as well as access related content like animated series, webtoons, and live streams. It's essential for anyone who plays Ankama's games, as it handles game updates, account management, and provides news about the Ankama universe. The launcher uses Electron as its underlying technology framework.

According to recent user reports from 2024, the launcher still uses an outdated Electron 16 framework (end-of-life since May 2022) that has limited Apple Silicon support, causing high power consumption even when idle. While Ankama is an active company that continues to update the launcher (latest version 3.14.7 available), there's no indication they're prioritizing Apple Silicon optimization. Since this is the only official way to access Ankama's games like DOFUS and WAKFU, you'll need to keep using it with Rosetta 2 for now. We recommend checking Ankama's official announcements periodically for any native version updates.
