Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Pragmata runs on Capcom's RE Engine, which ships with FSR and DLSS. A near-free FPS boost - enable it first, especially with ray tracing on.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and lighting across the game's glossy sci-fi surfaces. Beautiful but the single heaviest setting - keep Off for high FPS, or pair with upscaling.
Volumetric LightingLow+7% FPS
Atmospheric light shafts and haze - a real cost in the moody sci-fi corridors. Medium is a clean trade.
Shadow QualityMedium+5% FPS
Shadow resolution and draw distance. High is the value pick over Max.
Screen Space ReflectionsOff+5% FPS
Reflections on metal and glass when ray tracing is off. A small saving when disabled.
Ambient OcclusionOff+5% FPS
Soft contact shadows that add depth. SSAO is a cheap, good-looking option.
Subsurface ScatteringOff+4% FPS
Realistic light through skin. Cheap; leave On for the close-up cutscenes.
Mesh QualityMedium+3% FPS
Geometry detail on characters and the station environments. High looks great; Medium for frames.
Anti-AliasingFXAA+2% FPS
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
Texture QualityMax-2% FPS
RE Engine textures are VRAM-hungry and the menu shows an estimate. On 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Max, to avoid stutter.
