The post-apocalyptic world of New Eridu in Zenless Zone Zero can be quite difficult for your PC to run. You might need to tweak certain settings to get the best FPS possible for your rig, although its system requirements are quite lenient.

As the game is not locked at 60 FPS unlike its recent gacha counterpart, WuWa, you can expect a higher framerate if your hardware is suitable. So, if you have been getting stutters or simply want better performance, here are the best PC settings for ZZZ.

Best FPS settings for Zenless Zone Zero

  • Image Quality: High
  • FPS: Unlimited
  • VSync: Disabled
  • Rendering: 1.0
  • Anti-Aliasing: TAA
  • Shadows: Low
  • FX Quality: Low
  • Shading Quality: High
  • Character Quality: Medium
  • Environment Quality: High
  • Mirror Reflections: Low
  • Volumetric Fog: Medium
  • Bloom: Disable
  • Depth of Field: Enable
  • Motion Blur: Enable
  • Distortion: Enable
  • Color Filter Strength: 10

You can turn all the settings down to boost FPS even more, but that would just wash out the graphical fidelity completely. These settings will give you great framerates, while still retaining graphic fidelity.

Make sure you apply these settings only if you have a high-end GPU like the RTX 4070 and above, as these specifically prefer graphical fidelity above performance. Of course, you can also use them with mid-end GPUs as well, but keep in mind that performance will likely take a hit.

Does Zenless Zone Zero have DLSS?

No, there’s no DLSS in Zenless Zone Zero, so you cannot utilize that option to boost your framerates. Generally, super-resolution technology is not used that frequently in gacha or anime titles, so you shouldn’t have problems due to the absence of DLSS in the game.
