💻 Can My PC Run Hozy?

Hozy is one of the better-optimised cozy games of 2026. Despite running on Unreal Engine — which can be demanding — Come On Studio has specifically tuned the game for accessible hardware. In community playtests, players with GTX 660-class GPUs reported smooth 30 FPS gameplay at 1080p on minimum settings, while GTX 980 and above users consistently achieved stable 60 FPS at 1080p on high settings.

Integrated graphics warning: Hozy is not officially supported on Intel or AMD integrated graphics (e.g. Intel Iris Xe, AMD Vega integrated). Players have reported highly variable performance — anything from 20 FPS to unplayable — on integrated GPUs. A discrete GPU is strongly recommended even for minimum-spec play.

MacOS users: Hozy is fully supported on macOS 10.15 Catalina and later. Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) Macs run Hozy via Rosetta 2 translation and generally achieve excellent performance — many M1 MacBook Air users report smooth gameplay at native resolution with no performance concerns.

Laptop users: Hozy is a low-intensity game in terms of heat and power draw compared to action games. Most gaming laptops with a dedicated GPU (GTX 1050 or equivalent and above) will run Hozy comfortably. Ensure your laptop is plugged in or set to high-performance mode for the best experience.

🔧 Hozy Performance Tips

📉

Lower shadow quality first if you experience frame drops — shadows are the highest GPU cost in Hozy's engine config.

🖥️

Cap your framerate at 60 FPS in the graphics menu if you're on a non-gaming GPU — this prevents thermal throttling without affecting the experience.

💾

Install Hozy on an SSD if possible. Level loading times on HDD can be 3–5x longer, especially in the larger locations like the Old Café.

🔇

Closing background applications (especially browsers with video) frees 1–2 GB of RAM and noticeably reduces stuttering on 8 GB RAM systems.

🪟

Run Hozy in Fullscreen (not Borderless Windowed) on older GPUs for a significant performance improvement due to exclusive GPU access.

🔄

Keep your GPU driver up to date. Both NVIDIA and AMD released optimised drivers around the Hozy launch window that improve UE5 performance.
