Best Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition settings for the Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) (2026)

On a Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition runs at roughly 58 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 28FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) is a handheld graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 58 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 28 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 58 FPS at 1080p and 35 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 20 FPS at 4K. Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition offers ray tracing, but the Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition: Ray-traced lighting is always on - needs an RT-capable GPU.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition (4A Engine) supports DLSS - a big boost that makes its always-on ray tracing affordable.
Ray-Traced GI QualityNormal0% FPS
The Enhanced Edition's ray-traced global illumination is always on - you only pick the quality. High is the value pick; Extreme is for top-end cards.
Ray-Traced ReflectionsOff+10% FPS
Adds ray-traced reflections on top of the RT lighting. A real cost - turn Off first if you need frames.
Shadow QualityLow+7% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
TessellationOff+6% FPS
Adds rounded 3D detail to surfaces and rubble. Normal is plenty.
Advanced PhysXOff+5% FPS
Extra particle physics, debris and destructible detail. Off smooths combat on weaker GPUs.
Anti-AliasingOff+3% FPS
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
HairworksOffbaseline
Physics-based hair and fur. A small cost - off is fine.
Texture FilteringAF 16xbaseline
Keeps surfaces sharp into the distance - essentially free, use 16x.
