The Gundam franchise has been a staple of mecha anime and gaming, with many fans across the globe. You too must be a sucker for these intense battles and customizable mobile suits. With the recent release of Gundam Breaker 4 on Steam, fans are once again trying out the action-packed world of Gunpla customization and combat. That being said, for those enjoying this new title on the Steam Deck, optimizing the in-game settings is key to achieving high FPS and smooth performance. So, in this guide, we’ve shared the best settings to help you get the most out of Gundam Breaker 4 on your Steam Deck.
While Gundam Breaker 4 hasn’t yet been officially Deck Verified or labeled as “Playable,” early reports and gameplay videos suggest that it runs quite well on the Steam Deck. Players have found the game to be surprisingly smooth, with minimal issues right out of the box. Now for a cherry on the cake, we’ve compiled a list of optimal settings along with some tips to maximize performance and achieve higher FPS while playing Gundam Breaker 4 on your Steam Deck.
Best Gundam Breaker 4 Steam Deck Settings for high FPS & performance
To access these settings, simply navigate to the “Config” options from the main menu or while the game is paused. Once there, click on the “Graphics” tab on the right side of the screen. This will bring up a list of graphical settings that you can adjust to optimize performance. Make the following changes for the best possible FPS and performance.
Best Settings
- Screen Mode: Fullscreen
- Resolution: 1920×1080
- Frame Rate: 60
- V-Sync: Off
- Texture: High
- Anti–Aliasing: Medium
- Post Process: Low
- Shadow: Low
- Effect: Low
- Motion Blur: On/Off (According to your preference)
Steam OS Settings
For optimal performance of Gundam Breaker 4 on your Steam Deck, the recommended SteamOS settings are as follows:
- Set the FPS limit to 60
- Match the refresh rate to 60Hz for consistent visuals.
- Disable HRS (High Refresh Rate Support) and TDP (Thermal Design Power) limits for unrestricted performance.
- Use the Linear scaling filter for clearer graphics and disable GPU clock adjustments to maintain stable performance.
Keep in mind that these settings are just a starting point and can be adjusted based on your personal preferences and performance needs. Try out different resolution settings. Anything between 720p and 1080p should work well with the Steam Deck’s display. If you encounter stuttering, consider lowering Texture and Shadow quality to medium or low. Effects like Motion Blur are a matter of personal preference, and turning them off is what we recommend on the Deck’s smaller screen. At the end of the day, if you face persistent crashes or stuttering, using different Proton versions can help. Proton Experimental is one version to try.
By tweaking these settings, you can find the right balance between performance and visual quality to enjoy Gundam Breaker 4 at its fullest!
