Like with any other game, though, you’ll want to make sure you have the most optimal settings to get the best experience. These settings can vary based on the PC specs you have at your disposal and whether your prefer settings focused on performance or ones on graphics. But we have a list of suggested settings for you to strike a balance between frames per second and quality.

My system has a Ryzen 5 3600 and RTX 3060Ti, and with these settings applied, I get between 30 and 75 frames per second. Wreckfest 2 is still in early access, so I’m hoping the performance will improve once the game is launched in full.
