Best Destiny 2 Lightfall graphics settings for RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 Super

Destiny 2's latest expansion Lightfall is finally underway, bringing plenty of new content. Apart from the new campaign, players can now explore new areas and locations in the game's world. However, to play the latest content from Bungie, the game will need to run smoothly on your system for an immersive experience.

This is where the mid-range GPUs from Nvidia, the RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 Super, come in, the first generation RTX cards that came with several enhancements. Apart from real-time ray tracing capabilities and DLSS, these GPUs deliver huge performance upgrades over the GTX series. In 2023, the two graphics cards still hold up pretty well despite their age.

RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 Super support Destiny 2 Lightfall surprisingly well

Being an MMO title, Destiny 2 players often find themselves in intense battles that can be stressful for even the latest hardware. Due to the nature of the game and its mechanics, users will have to ensure that they maintain a high and stable framerate. This will allow for smoother visuals and a competitive gaming experience.

Thankfully, the RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 Super can comfortably run the game. While both cards can support the game in maximum settings, the result will be sub-par and not practical for most. Hence, players looking to optimize their gameplay experience in Destiny 2's Lightfall will need to adjust their graphics settings.

Here are the most optimal graphics settings to use in Destiny 2's Lightfall with the RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 Super:
