FAQs
How to make Warzone smoother on PS5?
Use Performance Mode rather than Resolution Mode in your PS5’s Game Presets. Go to Settings → Saved Data & Game/App Settings → Game Presets and pick Performance Mode to prioritize frame rate. Then under Settings → Screen & Video → Video Output, enable 120 Hz Output (Automatic) so your display can run at higher refresh rates. Inside Warzone, turn off heavy graphical effects like shadows, reflections, or motion blur to reduce load and help the game feel smoother.
How to aim better in PS5 Warzone?
Adjust your stick sensitivity to a comfortable mid range and fine-tune deadzones so your sticks respond accurately without drifting. Enable Aim Assist or use the default assist settings, which help track targets. Practice centering your crosshair—always keep your aim at head height—and play warm-up matches to get consistent with recoil control, flicking and adjusting aim on the fly.
How to get 120 FPS on Warzone PS5?
First, you need a display (TV or monitor) that supports 120 Hz and an HDMI 2.1 cable. On the PS5, go to Settings → Screen & Video → Video Output and set 120 Hz Output to Automatic. Then enable Performance Mode in Game Presets so your system favors frame rate over resolution. In Warzone’s graphics settings, switch on any option for 120 FPS Mode if available. If all is set correctly, you should see the smoother 120 frames per second in supported matches.
