Like many PlayStation 5 games, Helldivers 2 offers fans the option to play in either a Quality mode that makes the game look fantastic, or a Performance mode that helps the game run like butter. Which one to choose before getting started?
Should you play Helldivers 2 in quality or performance mode on PS5?

Helldivers 2 is an attractive game no matter what graphics setting you play on, but if you’re hoping for the best picture imaginable, you’ll want to choose quality mode. There is, however, a big drawback to this mode: 30 frames per second. You’ll be aiming for 30 frames per second at pure 4K resolution, so the overall picture quality will be stunning no matter what type of TV or monitor you’re playing on.
On the other side of the coin, you will have Performance mode. This provides a 1080p experience at 60FPS – the game won’t look as sharp, but it runs at a smoother FPS, making the shooter feel more snappy and satisfying. After starting the game in Performance mode by default, I cannot recommend playing in Quality mode, even if you are looking for the most perfect display options available.

While the drop to 1080p might be a bit disappointing, wasn’t 1440p an option here? – you can still make the game look pretty fantastic on any screen. There are a variety of graphics settings you can change in Helldivers 2 on PlayStation 5, and I recommend using the following:
- Camera Shake Intensity – Personal Preference
- Vertical Field of View – Personal Preference
- Motion Blur – Personal Preference
- Depth of Field – Enabled
- Quality Profile – Performance
- Antialiasing – Disabled (TAA makes the game blurrier)
- Sharpness – 1.00

It won’t be 4K like we would have hoped, but it will at least improve the overall look of the game and make it pop on your screen alongside the crisp 60FPS to make squashing bugs and Terminators all the more exciting.
