How To Make Stellar Blade Look and Run Its Best in 4K

Adjust these settings to optimize Stellar Blade’s appearance and performance at a 4K desktop resolution for the best gameplay experience.

Stellar Blade runs exceptionally well on modern hardware. The game is incredibly well optimized and leverages rasterization at its core level. The developers have done a fantastic job of polishing the game. However, a few issues, such as temporal stability and shimmering, remain. Gamers with GPUs such as the RTX 4070 Ti / RTX 5070 and above will likely find these settings appealing for playing the game at 4K resolution.

Best Settings for Stellar Blade at 4K

A few keynotes to consider:

• The DLSS 4 transformer model is the default and helps mitigate the shimmering and artifacting issues present in the game.
• Framegen and MFG deliver extremely high framerates, and Nvidia Reflex surprisingly reduces input latency.
• 12GB VRAM GPU users, please check your VRAM using RTSS (MSI Afterburner). The game will stutter if VRAM exceeds 12 GB.
