1440p resolution perfectly balances sharp detail and maintains visual fidelity without causing too much frame rate loss. It’s not as taxing as 4K resolution, but it’s also not as easy to run as 1080p; instead, it strikes a balance between the two. Little Nightmares 3 is an incredibly optimized game that looks great at 1440p, especially with our tuned settings and specific changes we have made to the game. That said, below are the settings to refer to.

Note: The recommended GPU power starts at least an RTX 4060 or an Intel Arc B570. The higher the GPU power, the better the performance.

The game may be well optimized, but it still has some issues. Startlingly, there are active shimmering issues and artifacts within the game. Upon close inspection, we discovered that the game features an outdated build of DLSS; consequently, the DLAA implementation cannot fully clean up the image.

On Nvidia cards, we recommend using DLSS Swapper and utilizing the transformer model, which will help with the shimmering issue to an extent. However, on AMD cards, we recommend using TAA as anti-aliasing and then playing the game. The image will appear soft, but that’s the very best we can achieve. Alternatively, you can try FSR and see how things fare on AMD.

You can mod in FSR 4 in this game, but we would recommend going the XeSS route. The game also uses an older iteration of XeSS, for which you will require DLSS Swapper to update. For GPUs other than Nvidia, test different upscalers and use the one that produces the cleanest image.
