Quick Answer
VHOLUME is a lightweight Unity title, so most modern PCs handle it fine. Integrated graphics can launch the game, but you'll want a dedicated GPU for a smooth 60 FPS parkour experience. The single biggest performance lever is the anti-aliasing setting (see our FPS Fix guide).
Below are community-compiled specs based on the Steam store page and player reports. Always treat the Steam store page as the final source of truth.
Minimum Specs (720p, Low, 30+ FPS)
| Component | Minimum |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 (64-bit) |
| CPU | Intel Core i5-4460 / AMD FX-8350 or equivalent |
| GPU | NVIDIA GTX 760 / AMD Radeon R7 260X (2 GB VRAM) |
| RAM | 8 GB |
| Storage | ~6 GB available space |
| DirectX | Version 11 |
Recommended Specs (1080p, High, 60 FPS)
| Component | Recommended |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit) |
| CPU | Intel Core i5-8400 / AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or better |
| GPU | NVIDIA GTX 1060 / AMD RX 580 (4–6 GB VRAM) |
| RAM | 12–16 GB |
| Storage | SSD with ~6 GB free |

High-End / 1440p Ultra
For 1440p at high refresh, aim for an NVIDIA RTX 2060 / AMD RX 5700 XT or newer with 16 GB of RAM. VHOLUME isn't graphically demanding, so even a mid-range 2020+ GPU will max it out comfortably.

Controller & Input Support
- Full controller support — Xbox and PlayStation (DualSense) pads both work on PC out of the box.
- Keyboard + mouse — fully supported; the competitive speedrunning pick.
- Steam Input — remap gyro, back-paddles, and stick-drift correction via Steam's controller config.
- See our Beginner Guide for the keyboard-vs-controller breakdown.
Mac / Linux Status
VHOLUME is a Windows-only Steam release with no native macOS or Linux build. On Linux, players report the game runs under Proton (ProtonDB rating pending at launch) — expect minor input or audio quirks. macOS users currently need a Windows virtual machine or Boot Camp.
FAQ
Do I need an SSD?
No, but it cuts load times noticeably. A regular HDD works.
Does VHOLUME need an internet connection?
No. The game is fully playable offline; only leaderboard ghost-sync and Remote Play need a connection.
Why is my FPS low even on a good GPU?
Usually the TSR anti-aliasing setting. Hop over to our FPS Fix guide for the one change that fixes most stutter.
