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 Train Sim World 2.
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).
Train Sim World 2 uses DirectX 10: Uncork renders it with D3DMetal.
