Can the MacBook Pro (16-inch, M1 Max, 2021) run Planet Zoo?
Not compatible
No — it doesn't meet Planet Zoo's minimum requirements. Planet Zoo lists Windows 7 (SP1+)/8.1/10 64bit as its supported platform in the publisher's requirements, and the MacBook Pro (16-inch, M1 Max, 2021) runs macOS.
We did not judge the CPU, GPU, RAM, storage — only components we can verify are counted. This result stands regardless of them.
Component by component (minimum)
CPU
This laptop: not determined · Required: Intel i5-2500 / AMD FX-6350
Why not judged: There is no verified way to compare processors by name, so the CPU is shown for reference but not marked as meeting or missing the requirement.
GPU
This laptop: not determined · Required: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 (2GB) / AMD Radeon R9 270X (2GB)
Why not judged: There is no verified way to compare graphics chips by name, so the GPU is shown for reference but not marked as meeting or missing the requirement.
RAM
This laptop: not determined · Required: 8 GB
Why not judged: This laptop is sold with different amounts of RAM (or has upgradeable slots), so we can't tell how much yours has.
Storage
This laptop: not determined · Required: 16 GB
Why not judged: Installed storage depends on the configuration bought, and we don't record it. Check the free space on your own drive.
Operating system
This laptop: macOS · Required: Windows 7 (SP1+)/8.1/10 64bit
“Not judged” means we lack verified information for that component. It never means the laptop fails it.
