However, Alan Wake 2 features less modes to take advantage of on consoles \u2013 which is okay \u2013 so choosing the best mode for you will ultimately be up to personal taste (like in most games).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Before breaking down each mode, it&#8217;s worth mentioning that Remedy developed Alan Wake 2 from the ground up as a 30 FPS experience, as we learned last month from the studio&#8217;s communication director, Thomas Puha.\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tw-align-center twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\" xml:lang=\"en\">I\u2019m glad to say that Alan Wake 2 will have a Performance mode on PS5 and Xbox Series X. The game has been built from the beginning as a 30fps experience focusing on visuals and ambiance, but somehow we have managed to include a solid Performance mode. We\u2019ll talk details later.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Thomas Puha (@RiotRMD) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RiotRMD\/status\/1707003463127703956?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 27, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But as you can see in the tweet above, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/news\/2023\/09\/27\/alan-wake-2-will-have-a-performance-mode-on-ps5-and-xbox-series-x\" >Remedy also added a seemingly last-minute Performance Mode to the game<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/body_default\/public\/2023\/10\/26\/972dd2cc\/alan_wake_2_graphics_mode_9.jpg\" alt=\"Alan Wake 2 Best Graphics Mode Quality Performance Guide PlayStation 5 PS5 Xbox Series X\/S PC\" typeof=\"foaf:Image\" class=\"image-style-body-default\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s what we&#8217;ve discovered playing some of the game using both the Quality mode and the Performance mode<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Quality<\/strong>: Alan Wake 2&#8217;s Quality mode has an output resolution of 4K, with a render resolution of 2258 x 1270p, and a mostly locked framerate of 30 FPS with occasional dips.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Performance<\/strong>: Alan Wake 2&#8217;s Performance mode prioritizes 60 FPS over its resolution, and the output resolution is 1440p with a render\u00a0resolution of 1505 x 847p. The game holds its 60 FPS target quite well, but it&#8217;s clear 60 FPS is not locked 100 percent\u00a0of the time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Both of these modes are available on PS5 and Xbox Series X, but if you&#8217;re playing on Xbox Series S, the output\u00a0resolution is 1440p.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There are live-action video components to Alan Wake 2, something Remedy utilized with its Xbox-exclusive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/games\/quantum_break\/b\/xboxone\/archive\/2016\/03\/31\/quantum-break-game-informer-review.aspx#:~:text=Quantum%20Break%20isn%27t%20a,a%20gaming%20oddity%20deserves%20attention.\" >Quantum Break<\/a>, and those seem to be targeting the standard cinematic 24 FPS (although admittedly, it could very well be 30 FPS; the point being the frames will be less than 60 FPS you might be experiencing in Performance mode).\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>The Graphics Modes <em>Game Informer<\/em> Staff Are Using<\/h2>\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/body_default\/public\/2023\/10\/26\/98d43fe1\/alan_wake_2_graphics_mode_2.jpg\" alt=\"Alan Wake 2 Best Graphics Mode Quality Performance Guide PlayStation 5 PS5 Xbox Series X\/S PC\" typeof=\"foaf:Image\" class=\"image-style-body-default\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Alex Van Aken, Both<\/strong>:\u00a0No matter the game, I always start in Performance Mode. Personally, a higher \u2013 or steadier \u2013 frame rate is more important than fidelity. However, if the gameplay is slower-paced and there&#8217;s a larger emphasis on aspects like story and atmosphere, I like to check out Quality Mode to fully appreciate its beauty. I&#8217;m sticking to this routine for Alan Wake II.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blake Hester, Quality<\/strong>:\u00a0I am playing on Quality Mode because that&#8217;s what the game defaults to, and I didn&#8217;t even think of changing it. Looks good to me!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Charles Harte, Performance<\/strong>:\u00a0I\u2019ve been playing on Performance Mode on PS5. The difference in graphical quality between the modes is pretty negligible in my eyes. Playing at a higher frame rate, however, makes a huge difference. It\u2019s more important to me that a game feels good than looks good, and Alan Wake 2 looks good regardless.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kyle Hilliard, Performance<\/strong>:\u00a0As I do with all games, after making sure subtitles are on, and the vertical view is inverted because I am a broken man, I changed the settings to Performance. I always go for Performance. I personally cannot tell the difference when Quality mode is on, and much prefer the smoother gameplay experience. I would rather a game play better than look better, and for this generation in particular, turning on Performance Mode achieves both. I have had my technical issues with Alan Wake 2, but when the game is working well, I am grateful for the smoother framerate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Marcus Stewart, Quality<\/strong>:\u00a0I\u2019m playing on Quality Mode. For a slower-paced game, I don\u2019t need everything running at 60 FPS. I\u2019d rather see the great art direction (especially in The Dark Place) shine as much as possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Matt Miller<\/strong><strong>, Quality<\/strong>:\u00a0I&#8217;ve been running in Quality Mode with an eye toward seeing the peak visuals that Remedy can create after so long away from the franchise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wesley LeBlanc, Quality<\/strong>: Knowing that Remedy designed Alan Wake 2 with its 30 FPS Quality Mode in mind, it was easy for me to go with this visual option. The 60 FPS is nice, but I&#8217;m a sucker for fidelity, and Alan Wake 2 shines on that front. Plus, given how cinematic of an experience it is, playing in the more cinematic mode makes sense to me.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I do want to note that at the end of the day, you should just use the visual settings and graphics modes you prefer \u2013 there is no right or wrong answer, but I spend a lot of time (<em>too<\/em> much time) tinkering with these kinds of settings and technologies and wanted to hopefully help guide you toward a mode that matches your preferences.
