The Battlefield franchise has always been famous for its high-quality graphics. Battlefield 6 no different. At Battlefield 6's launch, the game was fairly well optimized, but it also had a lot of intense graphics that made it difficult to achieve high frame rates. You'll have to use the very best graphics settings if you want to maintain your target frames per second and ensure a smooth experience.
Luckily, this is where we come into play. We'll list all the PC graphics settings in Battlefield 6 and tell you what you should set for each one. This will not only ensure that your game looks great, but will also allow you to play at high FPS and get the most out of your PC.
Best graphics settings in Battlefield 6.
To begin customizing your graphics, go to the Battlefield 6 main menu screen and click the gear icon at the top of the screen. From here, click on the Graphics section on the left side of the screen.
Here you'll be able to change all the general graphics settings, including choosing what resolution you play at and what monitor Battlefield 6 will be displayed on. These settings will be more individual for each player, but you can find a list of our best settings for the general graphics menu below:
Graphics
- Graphics Quality: Custom
- Brightness: 50-60
- Sharpness: 75
Camera
- Field of view: 110-115
- Third person car field of view: 83
- Weapon field of view: wide
- World Motion Blur: 0
- Weapon Motion Blur: 0
- Camera shake amount: 20
- Chromatic aberration: Off
- Vignette: Off
- Film Grain: Off
Display
- Full Screen Mode: Borderless or Full Screen Mode
- Full Screen Device: Your Monitor of Choice
- Full Screen Resolution: Your preferred resolution for the monitor you are using.
- Aspect Ratio: Auto
- Refresh Rate: Your monitor's maximum refresh rate.
- Vertical Sync: Off
There are other sections below in the graphics menu, but they only apply to your HUD. Change them as you see fit, but for the most part they can be left alone.
Moving on, if you scroll back to the Graphics section of the menu, you can click on GRAPHICS to change each individual setting. This allows you to up or down the graphics quality of Battlefield 6, changing settings that have a big or small impact on your PC's performance.
You can see a full list of these settings and what they need to be set below:
Graphics Settings
- Texture quality: High
- Texture filtering: high
- Mesh Quality: Low
- Terrain quality: Low
- Understory Quality: Low
- Effects Quality: Low
- Volumetric quality: Low
- Lighting quality: Low
- Local highlight and shadow quality: Low
- Sunshade Quality: Low
- Shadow filtering: PCF
- Reflection Quality: Low
- Screen space reflections: off.
- Post Processing Quality: Low
- AO and GI Screen Space: Off
- Number of high precision objects: Average
Naturally, if you want to get as many frames per second as possible, simply set each setting to its minimum value. Our settings will still give you decent frame rates, but they will also keep your game highly graphically fidelity so you can see objects and enemies more clearly.
Finally, exit out of the GRAPHICS settings and look just below the Brightness and Sharpness settings in the graphics menu. Here you will see an “ADVANCED” option. Click on it and you'll be taken to a new menu where you can change scaling and other performance options. Below are the optimal settings in this menu:
Advanced settings
- Fixed resolution scale: 100
- Frame Rate Limiter: Enabled and set to maximum refresh rate (160,144, 240, etc.).
- Nvidia Reflex Low Latency: Enabled or Enabled + Acceleration
- Use “Enabled” if your GPU is better than your CPU, and use “Enabled + Boost” if your CPU is better than your GPU.
- Scaling technique: DLSS for Nvidia users / FSR for AMD users
- Quality Enhancement: Quality for better graphics, performance/ultra performance for maximum frames per second.
- Nvidia frame generation: disabled (adds too much input lag)
- Render future frames: disabled
- Performance Overlay: Off
The scaling you choose depends on the brand of your graphics card and whether you want to run Battlefield 6 at its native resolution. You can also run Nvidia Frame Generation if you have a suitable RTX GPU, but the added input lag is noticeable, so you'll have to decide if the extra frames are worth it.
