At today's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), Apple announced the 
newest version of macOS, now using the year *after* its release as the 
number, and still using codenames (the only Apple OS to do so).


macOS 26 (Tahoe) will be the last version that will run on any Intel Mac.

Following on from that, next year's macOS 27 will be the last version 
to "fully" Rosetta 2 support for running old Intel apps, although 
Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 will be "scaled back significantly to support 
only legacy apps like old games that won't be updated again."

   macOS 27 will be the last operating system to fully support Rosetta 2
