How to Resolve Blurry Graphics in Enshrouded on PC

In the expansive world of Enshrouded, a groundbreaking open-world survival game developed by Keen Games, players may encounter some visual challenges. Built on the proprietary Holistic engine, the game employs advanced technologies such as aggressive Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA) and upscaling methods to boost performance. However, these optimizations can sometimes result in a blurriness that detracts from the visual experience. This article will guide you through essential adjustments to enhance the image quality of Enshrouded.

Enhancing Image Quality in Enshrouded

The default settings in Enshrouded can often lead to a fuzzier image, regardless of the resolution you select. Fortunately, by tweaking a few graphics settings, players can notably reduce this blur without sacrificing performance.

Adjust the Sharpness Slider

Under the Display settings, you will find a Sharpness slider positioned below the Field of View options. This slider typically defaults to values around 30% or 50% when using DLSS or DLAA, which is common in many modern gaming titles.

Adjusting the sharpness can significantly enhance clarity. Our tests indicate an optimal setting above 30%. Below are comparisons showcasing the effects of the sharpness adjustments at 1440p with DLAA enabled:

Notice how foliage appears noticeably sharper and more defined in the right image compared to the left, with this enhancement being particularly visible during motion as the TAA tends to stabilize when stationary. This improvement is evident in other graphical elements as well, including trees, clothing, and character hair.

Check the Resolution Scale

Another critical setting that can contribute to a blurry image is the resolution scale, which defaults to 75% for 1440p gameplay. This setting effectively renders the game at 1080p, diminishing the visual fidelity.

Ensure that the resolution scale is adjusted to 100% to retain the intended resolution and clarity of your selected settings.

Both the sharpness and resolution scale settings play pivotal roles in enhancing the visual clarity of Enshrouded. The game’s dynamic settings menu allows players to observe these changes in real time, making it easier to find the right balance for optimal visuals.

While exploring other settings may yield visible differences in graphical quality, adjusting sharpness and resolution scale will produce the most significant impact on image clarity. In fact, even with the lowest presets, the game maintains a reasonable level of sharpness, provided these key settings are properly configured.

Once you’ve adjusted the visuals, don’t forget to gather essential resources like Resin and Shroud Spores to craft valuable items early in your Enshrouded journey.
