Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Silent Hill 2 (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS and FSR plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 traversal is demanding.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Medium+6% FPS
Software Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic frees a lot of FPS.
Shadow QualityMedium+5% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Volumetric FogMedium+3% FPS
The signature fog - heavy for the look but central to the atmosphere. High is a fair balance.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Reflections (Lumen)Highbaseline
Reflections on wet streets - very visible in foggy Silent Hill. High is a clean trade.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Flashlight particles and combat effects. Lower is more readable in tense fights.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far detail renders. Mild pop-in when lowered - the fog hides most of it.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
