EMU v26 is the latest release and ships with an updated 3D graphics engine. Because of this, macOS support follows Apple's current support regime. Please check the list below before installing.
Supported macOS Versions
- macOS 15 Sequoia — fully supported on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
- macOS 14 Sonoma — supported on Apple Silicon. On Intel Macs, some users have reported unusual behaviour, caused by how the updated 3D graphics engine interacts with older GPUs. As Apple is winding down Intel support across macOS, we do not plan further work on this configuration.
- macOS 13 Ventura and earlier — not tested. EMU v26 may install and launch, but we cannot guarantee it will behave correctly, and we will not be able to troubleshoot issues on these versions.
Recommendation
For the best experience with EMU v26, run on macOS 15 Sequoia. If you are on an older version of macOS, please upgrade before installing.
