Shadow Arena Steam Launch Options:

How to set the steam launch options for Shadow Arena Game

Shadow Arena Launcher Settings:

You have an option to change the graphics settings via the shadow arena launcher. When you click on settings you will see the following options:

Resolution Settings: Max

For a battleroyale max resolution is the best. You can spot enemies better as well as enjoy a more thrilling and immersive experience in game. Playing in higher resolutions also helps reduce eye strain.

Game Window Settings: Fullscreen

Best gaming experience when playing RPG Games. You also get better FPS Since windows by default prioritize fullscreen applications for better performance.

Graphics: Middle

This is something that the shadow arena devs need to fix. I mean they haven’t given us any controls to manually adjust the graphics settings. So its best to select the middle option which is the normal graphics setting.

Graphics Card: Select your Card

For laptops or PC’s with multiple cards, you need to select the card with the most power. laptops also have two cards. One for gaming and one intel or AMD card for regular tasks.

Make sure to select the right one.

Keep Launcher: No

There is no need to keep the launcher in background. Better to close it.

To be honest there is no option for fine-tuning for shadow arena settings. You have the same settings as the launcher settings. So if you have changed launcher settings there is no need to change game settings:

Game Window: Fullscreen

Same as explained before. Better gameplay experience with fullscreen mode.

Screen Resolution: Max

Less strain on eyes and better cleaner textures.

Graphics: Normal

I recommend normal since we cannot fine tune indiviual settings.

If you try to edit the game files there is a risk of ban so I won’t mention those methods in this post.

That’s all gamers. These were the best graphics settings for the shadow arena. I know its not enough so I recommend reading the optimizing windows for gaming guide. It can drastically help improve gaming performance.
