VirtualBox is being actively developed with frequent releases and has an ever growing list of features, supported guest operating systems and platforms it runs on. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x and 4.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, and OpenBSD. See " About VirtualBox" for an introduction. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 3. VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Looking for a new challenge? We're hiring a VirtualBox Principal Software Developer (US, UK, Romania). VM VirtualBox, its high performance, cross-platform virtualization software. Oracle today released a significant new version of Oracle Oracle today released a 6.1 maintenance release which improves stability and fixes regressions. The canonical discussion thread on the VirtualBox forums that covers this in more detail is here.Oracle today released a 7.0 maintenance release which improves stability and fixes regressions. There will never be any way to run a VirtualBox image that ran on an Intel Mac on an Apple Silicon Mac. So, not only will VirtualBox not work on Apple Silicon, it will never work on Apple Silicon. they don't use any of the standards built up in the PC ecosystem over the last 40 years.
None of these take the same form on the Apple Silicon platform - i.e. These include system memory, various bus controllers (PCI, USB), hard disk controllers, sound cards, graphics, BIOS/UEFI, etc.
So, it means not only that VirtualBox only runs on x86 CPUs, but also that it requires all the other elements of the x86 platform. However, it appears from various discussions I've seen on this topic that many users don't really understand what this really means. As per David Leitko's answer, VirtualBox is an x86 (more specifically, AMD64/x86_64) virtualization hypervisor.
