💡 Deadlock: Valve Source 2 - very well-optimised; lower Shadows and Particles for high, steady frame rates in fights.

At 1080p expect around 158 FPS, at 1440p about 95 FPS, and at 4K roughly 72 FPS with optimized settings. Deadlock doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
