Best Warzone 2 graphics settings to maximise performance on PC, PS5 and Xbox

If you're looking to be ultra-competitive in Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, you may need to tweak your graphics settings to give you more FPS.

To be competitive in first-person shooter games, like Call of Duty: Warzone 2, there's a well-known saying you should be aware of, and that's 'frames win games'. As a general rule, the more frames-per-second your PC or console can run at, the more competitive you'll be.

There are a lot of technical reasons for this but to put it simply, if you're running with low FPS, it may look like you're shooting towards the enemy but in reality, you're probably shooting at where the enemy was. That's because when a frame is generated, the image you see is updated.

The higher your FPS, the more frames are generated by your machine per second, giving you smoother gameplay but also a more accurate representation of where the enemy is. Having higher FPS won't make you a great FPS player, but it sure does help. There's a whole bunch of graphics settings to tweak on Warzone 2.0. But fear not, here are the best graphics settings for Warzone 2.0, no matter if you're playing on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, to give you the upper hand online.
