About

To run Project Horizon smoothly, a mid-range GPU like the RTX 4060 or RX 7600 is recommended for optimal performance. Players with these graphics cards can expect to achieve solid frame rates at 1080p resolution on high settings, making it accessible to a wide audience. However, those with higher-end options, such as the RTX 4070 or RX 7700, can enjoy the game at 1440p resolution with enhanced visuals, ensuring a more immersive experience.

While the game is designed to be demanding, it's not excessively so, making it manageable for most modern gaming rigs. Players with older or entry-level GPUs may need to lower settings and target 720p or 900p resolutions for a playable experience. Overall, investing in a mid-range GPU will provide the best balance of performance and visual fidelity, allowing players to fully enjoy the cooperative gameplay and intricate mechanics of spaceship management.

Performance profile

December 2026 release. As a current-generation title, Project Horizon pushes modern hardware — expect to need an RTX 40-series or RX 7000-series GPU to enjoy it at native 4K Ultra without leaning on upscaling.

Simulation titles like Project Horizon are heavily CPU-dependent — physics, AI and world state dominate the frame budget. Prioritise a CPU with strong single-thread performance and fast RAM over raw GPU power.

High-end requirement. Project Horizon needs an RTX 4070 Ti or RX 7800 XT for comfortable 1440p 60 FPS at High settings. 4K Ultra 60 FPS is flagship territory — RTX 4080 Super / RX 7900 XTX minimum without upscaling.
