For most players, the x64 build should "just work" (TM), this is the magic of Rosetta.  If for some reason Rosetta does not work you can use <code>arch</code> in Terminal to run the game as detailed below.  The Vintage Story developers intend in future to release a native Arm64 version of the game, but no release date for this has been announced.

For installation, please follow exactly the same directions as for Intel Macs in the section above.  You first need to download and install .NET 7 Runtime (macOS x64 version), see link above, if you do not already have that on your computer.  Then download the macOS version of Vintage Story, version 1.19.0-rc.8 or later, and it should simply run from <code>vintagestory.app</code> as soon as you have Unarchived it and given it permission to Open.
