Volumetric FogMedium+5% FPS
Atmospheric fog and light shafts (the game runs on PlatinumGames' own engine, not UE5/Lumen). High is a clean trade over Epic.
Shadow QualityMedium+4% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Blood, sparks and ability effects - heavy given the frantic combat. Lowering smooths big fights.
Reflection QualityHighbaseline
Lumen reflections on rain-slicked streets. High is a clean trade.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, motion blur and depth of field. Many disable motion blur for clarity in fast combat.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. Medium is a cheap, good-looking option.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
