"Rosetta was designed to make the transition to Apple silicon easier, and we plan to make it available for the next two major macOS releases – through macOS 27 – as a general-purpose tool for Intel apps to help developers complete the migration of their apps. Beyond this timeframe, we will keep a subset of Rosetta functionality aimed at supporting older unmaintained gaming titles, that rely on Intel-based frameworks."
What will happen to Rosetta 2 then? Most importantly, will the ability to emulate x86_64 containers and binaries in virtual machines persist? Will Rosetta 2 be blocked only from the App Store? Will apps be barred from Rosetta, only games be able to use it? Will it only support frameworks?
At this point in time we’re not able to provide guidance beyond that text in the public documentation.
