Best graphics settings to play Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PS 5

When it comes to graphics mode, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 seems to work best in the "Fidelity" setting with the VRR function set to "Uncapped." Nonetheless, the optimal visual configurations for each player will differ significantly according on their individual tastes and the screen they're using. Selecting "Performance" mode, which raises the number of frames per second at the expense of quality, will probably be the best option if their screen does not support 4K resolution.

The decision becomes more difficult if players have a 4K screen. They will then have to make the tough choice of whether to give graphical quality (fidelity) or refresh rate (performance) priority. If getting a higher refresh rate is important, players who can do so should absolutely enable 120Hz display mode, which will lower input latency and increase refresh rates.
