The Battlefield 2042 open beta is ongoing ahead of the game’s November 19, 2021 launch. Although the current build isn’t final, it’s pretty close, which makes it possible to discern the best BF2042 graphics settings for the beta and full release. So, look no further than this Battlefield 2042 best settings guide to help boost performance (FPS) and visibility on PC.
Battlefield 2042: Best PC settings list
Here are the best Battlefield 2042 video settings for PC:
- Texture Quality — High
- Texture Filtering — High
- Lighting Quality — Medium
- Effects Quality — Medium
- Post Process Quality — Low
- Mesh Quality — Low

Players using lower-end systems should also turn the Enable Dynamic Resolution Scale setting on. This way, the game’s resolution will automatically adjust to meet the framerate target and ensure smoother gameplay performance. Of course, it may be necessary for some players to opt for lower settings if their hardware can’t cut it. Turn settings down one by one to discover the perfect balance for the computer in question.
The above Battlefield 2042 graphics settings strike the best balance between visual fidelity and high performance. Additionally, increasing the field of view (FoV) while disabling effects like motion blur, film grain, and lens distortion make for much better visibility. Players will lose part of the general ambiance, however, it’s more than worth it for a clean look that can be advantageous in a gunfight.
