AEW Fight Forever is the talk of the town in the wrestling video game community. It took the playerbase by storm last week by bringing back retro arcade-style wrestling to modern consoles and PCs. The title launched on both the last-gen PlayStation 4 and the new PlayStation 5, making it widely accessible to fans. It comes with a ton of customizable settings that need to be changed before you start playing.
Luckily for players, AEW doesn't come with any major graphics settings that can drastically alter the experience. In this article, we will list the best settings for the latest fighting game on the market.
What are the best AEW Fight Forever settings for PS4 and PS5?
The latest AEW game from THQ Nordic isn't very graphically demanding, which is a relief for gamers on the older PS4 console. The PS5 can handle the title at 4K 60 FPS without breaking a sweat.
Unlike most offerings released on the console over the past couple of years, the new fighting game doesn't come with a Quality or Performance mode that can help fine-tune the experience, depending on what players want. The older PS4 consoles run the game at up to 1080p 60 FPS (30 FPS on the Slim) and the PS5 can do it up to 4K 60 FPS.
It isn't as particularly demanding as other AAA titles on the market, like Horizon Zero Dawn or Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Thus, the consoles' cooling system won't ramp like a jet engine in any scenario (unless they are very dirty, in which case clean your PS5 to boost performance).
