Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Satisfactory (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. A free FPS boost - and big factories lean on the CPU, so enable it first.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Low+15% FPS
Software Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic is a big saving across sprawling factories.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High looks nearly identical to Epic while running faster.
Foliage QualityLow+7% FPS
Grass and plant density in the wilderness. A real cost early game; lower once your factory takes over.
