So as you can see, there isn't a huge selection of graphics settings available in Mortal Shell, but there are the standard options at least which should give us a good degree of customization when it comes to graphics quality. A Resolution Scale option is very much welcome as always, and an HDR option is nice to see if you have a compatible monitor.

Interestingly, the developers included an "Indie Mode" setting because, well, why not? This setting actually slightly pixelates the display to give a more indie game look to it, which can be a bit of fun.

Other than that, Mortal Shell includes a fairly standard range of graphics settings available, and should give us plenty of room to tweak the visual quality and FPS performance to our liking.
