The minimum version of macOS required is macOS 12 Monteray.

You can have 23.x, 24.x, 25.x and the public beta all installed at the same time.

It's important to note that the current release (25.x) and the prior major release (24.x) are what's officially supported.  Having 23.x or 22.x installed requires having had it from when they were the current releases and have not uninstalled them.  So, if doing a clean install, you'll only be able to choose from 25.x and 24.x.

I have pretty tight deadlines (same day or next day), so I do most of my work in the prior release 24.x; however, I keep the release version before that installed 23.x in case an older project doesn't open as expected or something unexpected happens and the current version 25.x to be ready to move up to it when the next major release drops.

My main work machine  (2019 Intel Mac Pro) is running macOS macOS Ventura 13, my slightly older laptop (16-inch MacBook Pro M1 Max) is running macOS Sonoma, and my newest laptop (16-inch MacBook Pro M4 Max) is running macOS Sequoia.

Here are some screen shots of a tutorial project open on the same 16--inch MacBook Pro M1 Max.

It may be worth mentioning that if you're running Photoshop 2025 (version 26.7) under macOS Ventura 13, you'll get a message recommending that you upgrade to macOS Sonoma 14 to take full advantage of new features.
