Brightness Settings
The RE Engine handles its brightness settings in a bit of an odd way, both in SDR and HDR modes. In this game, I would recommend playing with HDR if possible as I think it looks better when properly configured, but on many PC and monitor / TV setups, HDR can be a bit of a crapshoot. So here are some recommended settings for both HDR and SDR modes.
If you find you cannot activate HDR in-game, go into the Windows HDR settings and enable it there first before launching the game.
- Max Brightness: Rightmost setting
- Min Brightness: Leftmost setting (skipped in HDR mode)
- Final Brightness Setting: Two clicks to the left from the middle/default setting
