Stellar Blade is an incredibly optimized title, and it looks gorgeous at 1440p with maxed out visuals. The game is a piece of art and demonstrates that with proper raster techniques. With these, excellent image quality can be easily achieved. The RAM utilization is also rock solid, except around 6-8GB max usage. Meaning your 8GB GPUs, such as the 4060, 4060 Ti, 5060, and more, can easily handle 1440p in this game. That said, the settings below reflect the Very High settings preset, with minor adjustments made to enhance the game’s appearance further and feel beyond its stock settings.

A few keynotes to consider:

  • Lower texture settings if VRAM exceeds 8GB on your card
  • Nvidia users should use DLSS and the Quality preset for best image reproduction, as it cleans up minor temporal issues, shimmering, and artifacting.
  • For AMD users, you have FSR 4 support, which also does a good job of cleaning up the image like DLSS does.
  • If you exceed VRAM on 8GB cards, lower texture and shadow settings, since they use the most VRAM.
