Possible performance fixes in Elden Ring Patch 1.15

In addition to bug fixes, FromSoftware has identified possible reasons for players facing unstable performances. They have also shared remedies that you can try to fix the issue. 

  • In some PC versions, Ray Tracing may be unintentionally enabled and cause unstable performance. Please check the Ray Tracing setting in the “System” > “Graphics ” > “Ray Tracing Quality” from the title screen or in-game menu.
  • In the PC version, the message “Inappropriate activity detected” may appear without cheating.
  • To fix this issue, please verify the integrity of the game’s files before restarting the game.
  • In the PC version, unstable framerate may be caused by third-party applications that control mouse behaviour. Deactivating these third-party applications may improve performance.
