Description:
The highly anticipated Elden Ring Nightreign has finally launched, prompting gamers to update their drivers and fine-tune graphics settings ahead of their journey through Limveld.
With system requirements on the lower side, the roguelite should run smoothly on most PCs.
However, as with previous FromSoftware titles, players may encounter frame pacing issues and occasional frame rate drops when the screen is cluttered or during scenic moments.

To help users maintain a stable 60 frames per second (FPS) without compromising visuals, here are the recommended graphics settings for Elden Ring Nightreign on PCs meeting the game’s recommended specifications:
Display resolution: Native
Texture quality: High (depending on VRAM)
Antialiasing quality: High
SSAO (Screen Space Ambient Occlusion): High
Depth of field: High or off (personal preference)
Motion blur: On or off (personal preference)
Shadow quality: High
Lighting quality: High
Effects quality: Medium
Reflection quality: High
Volumetric lighting quality: High
Water surface quality: Low
Shader quality: Medium to high (based on VRAM)
Global illumination: High
Grass quality: Medium
Reducing settings like antialiasing and SSAO below high may lead to washed-out visuals, so it is advised to keep these elevated.
Effects quality controls particle effects and status elements; lowering this can improve performance but setting it too high may cause FPS drops.
Water surface quality is less critical and can be set low without much visual sacrifice. Shader quality demands significant resources, so testing medium versus high is recommended.
For users with lower-end PCs that meet or fall just below the minimum requirements, the following settings are suggested for smoother gameplay without overly degrading visual quality:
Display resolution: Native
Texture quality: Medium
Antialiasing quality: High
SSAO: Medium
Depth of field: High or off (personal preference)
Motion blur: On or off (personal preference)
Shadow quality: Medium
Lighting quality: High
Effects quality: Low
Reflection quality: Low
Volumetric lighting quality: High
Water surface quality: Low
Shader quality: Low to medium (depending on VRAM)
Global illumination: Medium
Grass quality: Medium
Key settings affecting performance include effects quality and shader quality, which should be adjusted carefully for optimal frame rates.
Grass quality can be toggled between medium and high to find the best balance.
With these configurations, players can expect a more consistent experience in Elden Ring Nightreign on a variety of hardware setups.
Before embarking on your first quest, consider consulting the game’s character class guide to tailor your playstyle.
