Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The biggest single FPS gain — turn it on first; Quality mode is very close to native in this game.
Shadow QualityLow+12% FPS
Shadow resolution and draw distance. High looks almost identical to Ultra while running noticeably faster.
Screen Space ReflectionsLow+10% FPS
Reflections on water and wet surfaces. One of the first things to lower — the drop is hard to spot in motion.
Ambient OcclusionLow+8% FPS
Soft contact shadows that ground objects and characters. Medium is a fine, subtle saving.
Effects / Particle QualityLow+7% FPS
Smoke, fire and debris. Drops most during combat — lower it to stay smooth when it matters.
Level of Detail (Geometry)Low+6% FPS
How far full-detail models render before simplifying. Lowering causes mild pop-in on distant scenery.
Motion Blur / Depth of FieldOff+2% FPS
Pure preference and barely touches FPS — many players switch these off for a cleaner image.
Texture QualityUltra-2% FPS
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. This game is VRAM-hungry; on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at glancing angles. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
