Best Phantom Blade Zero settings for the NVIDIA RTX 2060 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 2060 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Phantom Blade Zero runs at roughly 73 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 55FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 2060 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Phantom Blade Zero is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 73 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 55 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 73 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 47 FPS at 4K. Phantom Blade Zero supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 2060 can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Phantom Blade Zero at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Phantom Blade Zero: Unreal Engine 5 - turn off ray tracing and lower Lumen GI first for high frame rates.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSQuality+35% FPS
Phantom Blade Zero (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Effectively required at 1440p and up - enable it first.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced lighting and reflections. Stunning but brutally heavy on a fast action game - keep Off unless you have DLSS + Frame Gen on.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap on FPS if it fits your VRAM. High for 8GB cards, Epic for 12GB+.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Highbaseline
Software Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest non-RT setting. High over Epic is a big saving with little visible loss.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High looks nearly identical to Epic while running faster.
Reflections (Lumen)Highbaseline
Reflections on blades, water and wet surfaces. Medium/High is plenty.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Combat sparks and ability effects - a real cost in this fast, flashy combat. High keeps fights smooth.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Grass and plant density. Mild visual loss when lowered.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Motion blur, bloom and depth of field. Cheap; set to taste.
