Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
007 First Light runs on IO Interactive's Glacier engine (the Hitman engine), which supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. A near-free FPS boost - enable it first.
Ray-Traced ReflectionsOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections on Bond's polished, mirror-filled locations. A real cost for a classy gain - keep Off for high FPS.
Texture QualityUltra-2% FPS
Surface sharpness, shown with a VRAM estimate. On 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow map resolution and range. High is the value pick over Ultra.
Screen Space ReflectionsMediumbaseline
Reflections on water, glass and marble floors when ray tracing is off. Glacier leans on these - Medium is a clean trade.
Simulation QualityMediumbaseline
Crowd density and physics detail - a Glacier-engine signature in busy missions. Medium keeps frametimes steady in packed crowds.
Volumetric LightingMediumbaseline
Atmospheric light shafts and fog. Medium is an easy win that's hard to notice in motion.
Ambient OcclusionSSAObaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. SSAO is a cheap, good-looking option.
Level of DetailHighbaseline
How detailed distant objects stay. High avoids obvious pop-in; drop to Medium for frames.
Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps angled surfaces (floors, walls) sharp into the distance. Practically free - leave at 16x.
