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 16 GB of memory for Stellar Blade.
An 8 GB Mac is below the minimum: the game will probably run slowly.
Allow about 75 GB for the game and another 5 GB for Uncork and Steam (their size in our fresh-install check in October 2026).
Stellar Blade uses DirectX 12: Uncork renders it with D3DMetal.

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