Doom The Dark Ages looks amazing on the PlayStation 5. The console's graphical prowess allows for smooth gameplay even with a wide 90-degree FOV and with parameters like Depth of Field turned on.

While its effect is minimal, we've abstained from using Chromatic Aberration to save some room for performance. We've enabled Motion Blur as well, but we've limited it to Medium mode so that it doesn't end up being too heavy on performance.

Here are the best settings for the game on the PS5:

Video

• Field of View: 90
• Chromatic Aberration: Off
• Depth of Field: On
• Sharpening: 1.50

Display Calibration

• HDR Calibration: As per preference (Works only if you have an HDR display)

Motion Blur

• Motion Blur: On
• Motion Blur Amount: Medium

Accessibility

• Colorblind Rendering Mode: Off
• Intensity: 75% (Greyed out)

The PS5 Pro is a significantly more powerful console and packs a lot more juice in terms of memory and rendering power. Thus, we've enabled a wider 120-degree Field of View, enabling a more immersive experience.

Here are the best settings for the game on the PS5 Pro:

Video

• Field of View: 120
