Current status of Ark Survival Evolved with CrossOver 20.0.4 - will not run

I'm attempting to get Ark: Survival Evolved to run in Chrossover on Mac. I created a new Steam bottle (set to Windows 10) and then also installed DXVK and DirectX for Modern Games (following this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TdCV7fn2CA&t=343s).

Steam opens up without issue. I installed Ark: Survival Evolved using Steam. When attempting to play the game (using the option to bypass Battleye) the splash screen appears with a blank/black background. This is normally when a video would play. After waiting about a minute an error message appears:

Assertion failed: SUCCEEDED(HResult) [File:F:\build\truckNew\Engine\Plugins\Runtime\WindowsMoviePlayer\Source\WindowsMoviePlayer\Private\WindowsMovieStreamer.cpp]

Clicking on the OK button on the error dialog box closes the game. Doing some research it appears the game is attempting to play some .wmv files. After opening a support ticket with CrossOver I received the following response:

"I filed a bug for this issue to have it investigated as it is not present on Steam Proton. There is not an immediate fix currently, however i have added this ticket to the bug so you can be notified when it's addressed."

Same issue ("Ark Survival Evolved with CrossOver 20.0.4 - will not run") with the release from Epic Game Store. OS Kubuntu 20.04 64bits. Game's client version: 324.22.

Solo mode fail to run (music then immediate quit), BattleEye not enabled. Bottle Win7 64b. Then I have enabled in Crossover 'Backend DXVK Vulkan for D3D11'. Then I have install vcrun2013 64 bits, this did not help.

I do not get a error message. My GPU is Intel HD 530 and Nvidia GTX 950M.

The files I have try to launch: 'ArkEGSLauncher.exe' and 'ShooterGame.exe'.
