What your Mac needs
You need a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer): Uncork does not run on Intel Macs.
Steam requirements list at least 8 GB of memory for Satisfactory; 16 GB recommended.
An 8 GB Mac is tight; 16 GB is more comfortable.
Allow about 20 GB for the game and another 5 GB for Uncork and Steam (their size in our fresh-install check in October 2026).
How to launch with Uncork
- Download Uncork — it’s free.
- On first launch, Uncork installs everything it needs and Steam — about ten minutes.
- Sign in to Steam with your password or a QR code from the Steam app on your phone.
- Find Satisfactory in your library and install it (20 GB).
- Launch it with the “Play” button in Uncork.
If Satisfactory won’t start or crashes, message us on Telegram at @uncorkwin and we’ll look into it together.
What we have not tested
We haven’t run Satisfactory ourselves, so we don’t know the frame rate on your Mac, how online play will work and how controllers will work.
