The PlayStation 5 is a really powerful console and it brings a ton of impressive new features. You get 4K 120FPS support, 8K support, adaptive triggers, a handy create button for streaming, and a lot more. One of my favorite feature of PS5 is the ability to set custom preset settings. It solves the hassle of going through all the options within games to set your preferred resolution, difficulty level, and more. If you also play most of your games on the same settings, here’s how to preset game difficulty, resolution, etc on PS5

PS5 allows you to use presets for a bunch of in-game settings. While these settings do affect most games you’ll be playing on your PlayStation, there may be some games that don’t offer support for certain settings, in which case these presets will not be applied to them.

  • Preset Game Difficulty
  • Preset Game Performance Mode/Resolution Mode
  • Preset First Person and Third Person View Settings
  • Preset Subtitles and Audio Settings

Preset Game Difficulty

If you’re a casual gamer, like I am, you probably don’t play games in the hardest difficulty settings. So why go through the trouble of selecting an easy difficulty setting or a normal difficulty setting in every game, right?

  • Select ‘Game Presets’ and go to ‘Difficulty’.

If you’re looking to get the best gaming experience in terms of frame rates, you should probably preset your PS5 to run in Performance Mode. On the other hand, you can use Resolution mode if you don’t care too much about the FPS in your games, but you want the graphics to look as spectacular as possible.

  • Select ‘Game Presets’ and then ‘Performance Mode or Resolution Mode’.

People who play a lot of games usually have very specific preferences about inverted camera movements. If you’re tired of always having to adjust settings within games to invert camera movement, you can preset it by following the steps below.

  • Here you can invert controls for the vertical camera movement and horizontal camera movement.

A lot of games that have single player campaigns have subtitles to make sure you can follow along with conversations. If you’re anything like me, you prefer keeping subtitles on. Here’s how you can ensure that subtitles are always on within games that support them.

Preset Game Settings on PS5 and Jump Right Into Your Games

Now that you know how you can use preset game settings on your PS5 console, I would recommend that you set these up according to your preferences. This way, when you install a new game, you can dive right into the game itself without bothering too much with the settings and ensuring that the difficulty levels, subtitle settings, and more are all set to your preference.
