God of War Ragnarok has finally hit shelves and allows players to experiment with various frame rate options inside the game. Here’s everything you need to know about how to change the graphics modes in God of War Ragnarok.

God of War Ragnarok comes with several graphics modes, allowing players to enjoy the stunning visuals in 4K resolution or smoothen the experience by unlocking higher frame rates.

However, these graphics modes are restricted to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 Pro. If you’re someone who still owns a PS4, you won’t be able to alter the graphic settings.

With that being said, let’s take you through the steps of changing the graphics settings in God of War Ragnarok.

According to Santa Monica Studio, the PS5 has six different graphics combinations while the PS4 Pro has three different graphics combinations.

For the current-gen console, these modes either favor a smooth 60 FPS overall or favor quality at a native 4K resolution with lowered framerates. For the PS4 Pro, framerates will be capped at around 30 FPS but you may choose between 1080p and 1650p resolutions.
