Assassin's Creed: Odyssey - HDR Optimized Settings
Added 2022-03-15 12:00:01 +0000 UTC
The game is NOT using/applying Xbox/Playstation HDR Calibration app settings.
The game has a really good HDR implementation offering precise controls of both Peak HDR Luminance and Paper White values (the last one will impact both in-game Menu luminance and gameplay Gamma).
If you have an LG OLED and:
> you're using Dynamic Tone Mapping or Dynamic Contrast:
- Set Maximum Luminance slider to: 4.000 (nits);
- Set Paper White slider to: 150 (nits) or 200 (for G3).
> you're using HGIG:
- Set Maximum Luminance slider to: 1.000 (nits; as there's a bug where anything below this will just trigger HDR "Off") or 1.500 (for G3);
- Set Paper White slider to: 200 (nits).
If you don't have an LG OLED and:
> you don't have an HGIG option:
- Set Maximum Luminance slider to: 1.000 (nits);
- Set Paper White slider to: 200 (nits).
> you're using HGIG:
- Set Maximum Luminance slider to the corresponding real Peak HDR Brightness for your TV (in nits) but don't go below 1.000 nits;
- Set Paper White slider to: 200 (nits).
The game also has a regular "Brightness" slider and pattern which shouldn't apply to HDR (in theory) but it does alter the HDR exposure too. Try lowering it by -1 click for best results in all cases.
