Capcom’s latest action-adventure game, Pragmata, is now available for PC, and we’ve put together the best settings for getting optimized performance on mid-end system specs and the Steam Deck.
Before we delve into the best settings for the PC version of Pragmata, make sure you’ve updated your GPU drivers and Windows to their latest respective versions. Additionally, disable or close any unnecessary background applications in order to reduce the CPU overhead as much as possible. The settings detailed ahead should provide a more optimized balance between graphics and frame rate compared to the presets available in-game.
