Sekiro Shadows Die Twice ROG Ally Game Settings
Sekiro Shadows Die Twice suffers from performance issues such as random frame rate drops and some stuttering, I lowered the resolution from 1080p to 900p and pretty much put all the settings on low and still had issues getting a consistent framerate. I averaged 40-60fps with random drops to the 30’s through playing on turbo mode.
Playing at 18W for longer battery life I averaged 40-50 fps with dips into the 30’s.
