February is surprisingly light on cozy game launches but we're looking forward to these chill picks you shouldn't miss

Every time I think cozy gaming might be peaking it just gets bigger. The cute corner of the PC gaming hobby has been growing for years and that's meant not only are there more cozy game players on PC, there are also a lot more cozy game players here at PC Gamer—rad! Cozy games can be on the small side and don't always make it into our main 2026 games calendar, so we're carving out a special little corner here.

Gathering up which cozy games are coming out each month is basically a full time job, but instead of making it my full time job I've summoned a cozy coalition to help keep track of what's coming up next. I've made our foremost crafting, farm-simming, and building likers look ahead and decide what they're most psyched to play in February so you don't miss something that looks like your kind of cute.

Despite what I just said, keeping track of February's cozy game launches wasn't that hard because, well, there didn't seem to be a lot of them. Even all of us cozy game connoisseurs struggled to dig up releases. Without bigger cozy game launches taking up my attention, I was able to dive a bit deeper and fill up our cozy calendar below with some niche choices that I definitely would have missed if they launched later this year.

You'll find our cozy circle looking forward to small indie picks and some surprisingly spooky cute games too. Scroll down for a full list of cozy release dates below our personal picks.

Don't forget that Steam Next Fest, the big festival of free game demos, kicks off this month on February 23. Cozy games tend to be pretty big participants in Next Fest events, so you can expect to try out a ton of games that are planning to launch later this year.
