HoloCozy Steam Store Page Opens for Hololive Desktop Companion Game

CCMC opened the Steam store page for HoloCozy on August 19, 2026, a desktop companion room customization game developed by Ninth Games under the holo Indie fan-made game brand for Hololive Production. Wishlist registration is now available on the store page. The game features five Hololive talents drawn in pixel art: Tokino Sora, Usada Pekora, Shiranui Flare, Shirogane Noel, and Houshou Marine. Each talent autonomously performs actions such as working, resting, and sleeping based on in-game stamina and mood. Players earn coins based on the time talents spend on activities, then use those coins to obtain new furniture. Some furniture items change the talents' actions, and players can freely place beds, computer desks, and decorations to create their own room. The game also includes daily-use features accessed through an in-game smartphone: BGM and ambient sound playback, stream notifications when talents start or schedule streams, schedule management on a calendar, and a Pomodoro timer with configurable focus and break times. HoloCozy is scheduled for release within 2026, with price to be determined. It supports Japanese and English and is a single-player game on Steam.

The Steam store page for HoloCozy is live at store.steampowered.com/app/5040220. The game is a single-player desktop companion title, and the store page lists the developer as Ninth Games with an official X account at x.com/holocozy. The copyright line reads (C) COVER, (C) CCMC Corp., and (C) Ninth Games.

The in-game smartphone does more than handle daily tasks. It also lets players check talent status, view collections, and change room design. The Pomodoro timer and calendar functions sit alongside those management tools in the same interface.

CCMC describes holo Indie as a collective term for game brands built on its game creator support program. The company says the brand aims to co-create with Hololive Production fans and creators worldwide, and points to the Fan Works Guidelines published by COVER Corporation for details on what fan creators can make. CCMC itself is a wholly owned subsidiary of COVER, founded October 10, 2023, and based in Minato-ku, Tokyo, handling game production support and publishing.

GAME Watch notes the game screen can be moved and minimized on the desktop. Denfaminicogamer's press release text adds that some furniture items change talent actions such as working, sleeping, and resting, not just serve as background decoration.
