At Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference 2026, macOS 27 Golden Gate was revealed, but only devices with Apple silicon will receive the update. Apple discontinued support for most Intel Macs with macOS 26 Tahoe in 2025; the only Intel computers that got that update were the 16-inch MacBook Pro from 2019, the 13-inch MacBook Pro from 2020, the Mac Pro from 2019, and the 27-inch iMac from 2020, none of which are getting macOS 27. All Macs released since 2020 with M-series chips will get macOS 27, including models of the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac mini, Mac Studio, and Mac Pro, as well as the latest MacBook Neo with the A18 Pro chip. Intel-based Macs will receive security updates until 2029. Additionally, Golden Gate will be the final macOS version to have Rosetta 2, Apple's Intel-to-Apple translation layer, meaning Intel apps will run on macOS 27 but not on macOS 28. Apple claims it will keep some Rosetta functionality in upcoming updates to run older games, but this function won't work with most Intel apps still getting updates.
