Apple has released the Release Candidate (RC) of tvOS 27 to developers and public beta testers, following its 'It's Glowtime' event. This update comes without the expected new Apple TV 4K hardware, but the software is now available for testing.

As is typical for RC releases, Apple hasn't provided detailed release notes, but the update is expected to be the final version before the official public release next week. The RC is available for both the developer and public beta channels.

To install the tvOS 27 RC, users can navigate to Settings > System > Software Update on their Apple TV. Ensure your device is compatible and enrolled in the beta program.

This update brings performance improvements and new features, which will be fully detailed upon the official release. For now, beta testers can enjoy the latest iteration of Apple's TV operating system.
