Best PC Settings for Wuthering Waves

Before changing your settings on Wuthering Waves, you need to decide if you want to target Quality—making the game look as good as possible—or Performance—ensuring the game runs as smoothly as possible. Ultimately it will depend on the type of PC you are playing Wuthering Waves on.

If your PC is somewhat modern and has been purchased or upgraded in the last few years, you’ll want to shoot for the best Quality. However, if you’re playing on an older PC or perhaps even with a poor internet connection, you will want to go with Performance. You can also mix and match to find a happy medium in between, simply tweaking each setting one by one and seeing how it performs for you. Here are the best Quality PC settings for Wuthering Waves:
