Optimal graphics settings in Star Wars: Zero Company for weak PCs

[Wednesday, September 2, 2026]

The new turn-based strategy Star Wars: Zero Company pleased fans of the genre with excellent gameplay, but the technical state of the project at release raised many questions. Players are massively complaining about unpleasant jerks, freezes and general instability even on very powerful computers.

While developers are preparing patches with fixes, they will have to deal with poor optimization manually. This short guide contains the best graphics settings that will help reduce system load, remove freezes and ensure stable frame rates.

Image and performance optimization

The configuration proposed below is created with an emphasis on computers whose characteristics are closer to the minimum or average requirements. The main goal is to achieve smooth operation without critical loss of picture quality.

  • Screen mode: At your discretion (Full screen or windowed).
  • Resolution: Be sure to select the native resolution of your monitor to avoid blurring.
  • Frame rate limit: 60 or 75 frames per second. Since this is a turn-based strategy and not a fast-paced shooter, 60 frames is ideal for smooth gameplay without unnecessary overheating of the video card.
  • Vertical Sync (VSync):Disabled.You should only enable it if severe frame tearing or frequent microfreezes appear on the screen.
  • Smoothing and scaling: AMD video card owners should choose FSR, everyone else should choose TSR.
  • Scaling quality:Performance or Balance (depending on the power of your PC).
  • Frame generation:Disabled (may cause unnecessary delays).
  • AMD Anti-Lag 2:Enabled (if supported by the video card).
  • General quality:Custom (for manual settings).
  • Shadow quality: Low (shadows traditionally put a lot of stress on the system).
  • Global Illumination:Low.
  • Reflections:Low.
  • Post-processing:Medium.
  • Textures:Low.
  • Effects quality:Average.
  • Shader quality:Low.
  • Draw distance:Low.
  • Detailing of hidden objects: Simplified.
  • Environmental geometry detail:Disabled (highly recommended for older video cards).

The main secret of stability at the moment lies precisely in the strict limitation of the frame rate. By setting the limit at 60 FPS, you can get rid of most problems with sudden load surges. All that remains is to wait for the official patches that will finally bring the optimization to fruition.
