Apple Seeds macOS Golden Gate 27.2 Release Candidate to Developers

Apple has released the initial Release Candidate (RC) for macOS 27.2 to developers and beta users, leading up to its official launch in the near future. Following the release of macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 4 last week, the company is now rolling out the RC ahead of the system's official debut. This update introduces support for five new languages for Siri AI: French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish.

The feature initially launched with English-only support, with Apple planning to broaden language availability during its Surprise and Shine event.

macOS 27.2 also includes new gesture recognition tools within several pre-installed applications, potentially setting the stage for Apple's anticipated touchscreen MacBook Pro, which is expected to be unveiled later this month at the Pro and Tell event. One significant bug identified in beta 4 causes windows in Electron-based apps to intermittently stop responding to dragging actions. Although restarting the Mac temporarily fixes the problem, it can resurface at a later time.

The RC build number for macOS 27.2 is 26B118. Our team is currently examining the system and will provide updates if any noteworthy details are discovered. To install the first macOS 27.2 RC, follow the instructions provided by Apple.
