What your Mac needs
You need a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer): Uncork does not run on Intel Macs.

Any Apple Silicon Mac has enough memory for the listed minimum.
Allow about 10 GB for the game and another 5 GB for Uncork and Steam (their size in our fresh-install check in October 2026).

What we have not tested
We haven’t run Fallout: New Vegas ourselves, so we don’t know the frame rate on your Mac and how controllers will work.
