You may have noticed that we have preferred the Performance + HFR + VRR graphics mode in our PS5 options. This is because even though you can get 4k resolution at 30fps in a game, we truly believe that a game of this caliber requires the maximum amount of frames you can get on your device. 4K at 30fps isn’t bad, but sacrificing resolution for higher framerates is really handy for everyone here at GamerTweak. Also, if your TV does not support BRR, you can choose the nearest best option from the main table we shared above.
I hope this helped you understand everything about God of War Ragnarok graphics modes available on PS4, PS4 Pro and PS5 consoles. While you’re here, be sure to check out more interesting topics in our GoW Ragnarok guides.
