Best PC optimization guide for Metal Gear Solid Delta 

Having optimized settings for the PC version of Metal Gear Solid Delta is essential to experience a smooth journey. While the remake of the legendary stealth-action title looks so much better because of Unreal Engine 5, getting a good visual performance and a stable frame rate can be pretty demanding.

So, based on your PC specifications, changing the in-game settings is important to achieve 60 FPS. While you may have to compromise the visual aspects, it's always preferable to feel good playing a game than for it to look good.

Here is a detailed PC optimization guide for MGS Delta Snake Eater.

While DLSS and FSR are available for supported graphics cards, it's better to utilize the latter if the game is running poorly. Then, select the Balance or the Performance mode.

Notably, a GPU with 8GB VRAM will provide better overall performance. So, even if you have mid-range GPUs, such as the RTX 30 series, Metal Gear Solid Delta should run smoothly.
