Can the MacBook Pro (14-inch, M5, 2025) run Subnautica?
Not judged
Not judged — we don't have enough verified information to say whether the MacBook Pro (14-inch, M5, 2025) can run Subnautica. This is not a "no".
Nothing we can verify rules it out, but we can’t confirm it either. Each component below says which information is missing — compare those requirements with your own laptop’s configuration. We don’t guess.
Component by component (minimum)
CPU
This laptop: not determined · Required: Intel Haswell 2 cores / 4 threads @ 2.5Ghz or equivalent
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: Intel HD 4600 or equivalent - This includes most GPUs scoring greater than 950 points in the 3DMark Fire Strike benchmark · DirectX 11
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: 4 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: 20 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 Vista SP2 or newer, 64-bit; also available on macOS (macOS requirements are listed separately on the Steam page)
Why not judged: The publisher's platform listing doesn't name a single operating system, so we can't match it to this laptop.
“Not judged” means we lack verified information for that component. It never means the laptop fails it.
