🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — FSRQuality+35% FPS

Grounded 2 (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS and FSR — the biggest GPU win, and it tames the dense backyard foliage.

Quality PresetHighbaseline

Grounded 2's early-access menu is deliberately minimal — a single visuals preset (Low-Epic) drives nearly all detail, including the dense backyard foliage that dominates the frame cost. Granular tuning needs config-file edits.

Render Scale100%baseline

Internal render resolution on top of upscaling. Dropping below 100% is a strong FPS lever at some sharpness cost.

Anti-AliasingMediumbaseline

Edge smoothing on the tiny-scale detail. Medium keeps the yard crisp cheaply.
