There are no reported issues with this title.
===Low-resolution Depth-of-Field effect===
The depth-of-field buffer created by the game seems to be ~322x322 pixels, which is unfortunately lower than the above recommended resolution scale threshold of 512x512, causing the depth-of-field effect to not get scaled up when using it.
 
Using a threshold of 321x321 or lower allows DoF to scale properly, but will cause issues with other effects (eg. most glow effects will become artifacted). Until a way is found to possibly resize the DoF buffer separately, a patch to disable it entirely can be found below for certain releases.
 
==Special Notes==
<!-- Mention any additional notes if necessary. If no special notes are required, remove this section -->
===Original EU PSN version DLC bug===
The original release (v1.00) of NPEB01407 had a bug where DLCs were not recognised correctly. Instead of pushing an update to fix this issue, Square Enix pulled the entire game from the store and replaced it with the fixed version (v1.01). Users who had downloaded the original version were required to completely uninstall the game and re-download the fixed version. Fortunately, if a user tried to download the game today, only the fixed version will be downloaded. It is therefore important for owners of NPEB01407 to download the newer version of the game using the instructions mentioned in our [[Help:Dumping PlayStation 3 games#Dumping PSN games|game dumping guide]]. License file is unchanged between the two versions.

Drakengard 3 (originally released in Japan as Drag-On Dragoon 3) is the third game in the Drakengard series and a prequel to the original game. The game, like the rest of the series, features a mixture of ground-based hack-and-slash combat and aerial battles. The story focuses on Zero, a woman who can manipulate magic through song. Partnering with a dragon named Mikhail, Zero set out to kill her five sisters, who rule the world's regions. As she travels, the player discovers the true reason behind Zero's rampage.

The game, created to cater for hardcore role-playing game audiences, was developed by the same team who created the original Drakengard and series spin-off Nier, including producer Takamasa Shiba, director Yoko Taro and writer Sawako Natori. The music was composed by Keiichi Okabe, who also scored Nier. Unlike previous titles in the series, the team developed the game at Access Games, due to the company's experience at developing action titles and the team's wish to address criticisms laid at the gameplay of previous Drakengard games. Drakengard 3 received mixed to positive reviews and sales in Japan and mixed reviews in the west. The ground-based gameplay and story were generally praised, while common criticisms included the dragon gameplay, graphics and multiple technical issues.

Configuration

Options that deviate from RPCS3's default settings and provide the best experience with this title are listed below.

GPU configuration

Setting Option Notes
Anisotropic filter Auto Changing to anything other than Auto causes graphical issues.
Resolution scale threshold 512 x 512 To be used when Resolution scaling is set above 100%.

Advanced configuration

Setting Option Notes
Vblank rate 120 120 for 60 FPS or 240 for 120 FPS.
To be enabled alongside the FPS patch.

Recommended patches

Game patches are available through the RPCS3 Patch Manager. To enable them, right-click a game in RPCS3 then select "Manage Game Patches". Game Patches are created by RPCS3's community, and can alter how a game runs. More information can be found here.

Recommendation Patch name Notes
Recommended patch Unlock FPS, Increase Horizontal Camera Sensitivity

Known Issues

Low-resolution Depth-of-Field effect

The depth-of-field buffer created by the game seems to be ~322x322 pixels, which is unfortunately lower than the above recommended resolution scale threshold of 512x512, causing the depth-of-field effect to not get scaled up when using it.

Using a threshold of 321x321 or lower allows DoF to scale properly, but will cause issues with other effects (eg. most glow effects will become artifacted). Until a way is found to possibly resize the DoF buffer separately, a patch to disable it entirely can be found below for certain releases.

Special Notes

Original EU PSN version DLC bug

The original release (v1.00) of NPEB01407 had a bug where DLCs were not recognised correctly. Instead of pushing an update to fix this issue, Square Enix pulled the entire game from the store and replaced it with the fixed version (v1.01). Users who had downloaded the original version were required to completely uninstall the game and re-download the fixed version. Fortunately, if a user tried to download the game today, only the fixed version will be downloaded. It is therefore important for owners of NPEB01407 to download the newer version of the game using the instructions mentioned in our game dumping guide. License file is unchanged between the two versions.

Anchors:
  DOD3_FPS_Notes_Part1: &DOD3_FPS_Notes_Part1
    "Vblank frequency must be 120Hz for 60 FPS or 240Hz for 120 FPS.\n"
    # Min frametime is this value / 30
    # 0.125 / 30 is 4.1ms, so max FPS is 240
    # This game has a second framerate limiter based
    # on Vblank, so set Vblank high to raise the framerate
    # Max FPS is Vblank / 2

  DOD3_FPS_Notes_Part2: &DOD3_FPS_Notes_Part2
    "Going over 120 FPS is possible, but physics will break a bit (lowering jump height) and make it impossible to lock-on to enemies when flying on the dragon."

  DOD3_FPS_NoUserInput_Notes_Part1: &DOD3_FPS_NoUserInput_Notes_Part1
    "Does not require user to change vblank settings.\n"

  DOD3_Camera_H_Sens_Notes: &DOD3_Camera_H_Sens_Notes
    "When using the FPS unlock patch the horizontal camera sensitivity gets very low. This patch changes a multiplier so that the horizontal camera sensitivity slider in the game's settings does something meaningful again. The multiplier can be altered in the patch file."
    # Sensitivity formula is "SliderValue * (Multiplier + 1)"
    # Where SliderValue is the setting (0-15) from the game settings and
    # default Multiplier is 0.125, giving a default range of 0.125 - 2.
    # 0.35 seems good from my testing, feel free to change as you see fit.
