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
Resolution scale 100 Changing makes the graphics green. While WCB+CPU Blit+300% scaling can "work" it looks worse than 100%.

Advanced configuration

Setting Option Notes
Vblank rate 120 Allows for 60 FPS with no known issues.

Known Issues

Leave anisotropic filtering at default (auto) setting. Using anything besides the default setting will introduce visual issues.

Special Notes

Upscaling does not work in this game, you can do what's mentioned in the config section above to upscale but it won't look better than running the game at default resolution with no upscaling.
