These days, it is an unfortunate reality that many games are released in an unfinished state and don’t run the best, even on beefy rigs and consoles. Atomic Heart developer Mundfish seems to have heeded the warning that Cyberpunk 2077 taught many. That being said, there are still some players running into issues with performance.

With PC, there are plenty of options available to resolve performance issues. There are some straightforward options liketurning on VSyncand disabling things like bloom and motion blur. There are several presets available depending on the specs of your PC. We can understand wanting to make the game look the best it can, but current-generation games are taxing on machines. If a rig can’t handle it, then certain limitations are going to be a part of it. Sure, there are options like disabling background tasks and apps, but these will have a limited benefit.
