DBZ Kakarot Performance Mode vs. Quality Mode | Which One is Better? Answered

In this guide, you can learn about the differences between Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Performance mode and Quality mode.

Like several other titles, the Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot next-gen version offers two different game modes: Performance and Quality. While the names are self-explanatory, players often find no difference between the two except the FPS. If that is the case for you, you might be wondering which one is best between Performance Mode and Quality Mode, so here is all you need to know.

The Performance Mode in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot favors FPS, whereas the Quality Mode favors graphical fidelity. That is about the same logic as all games that offer that distinction.

In Performance Mode, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot runs at 1080p 60 FPS, though the resolution gets upscaled to 4K. For those who are not that familiar with upscaling, it is a process where the pixel count of a resolution gets increased to match a higher-resolution pixel count. 

Most of the time, players can’t even notice the difference between the upscaled resolution in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot and the native 4K offered in Quality mode, assuming you are not comparing it on the Digital Foundry level.

That said, the Quality Mode in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot offers native 4K at 30 FPS. Apart from these, there is no difference between the Performance and Quality modes, and things like Ray Tracing and VRR are still missing. 

If you need to pick an option as the best, we think the Performance Mode is the best option for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, and you should go for it. 

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is available on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Google Stadia, and PC.
