This game seems to just obliterate my battery charge. Is this just me? Is there something i can do to mitigate some of the battery drainage?

It’s not just you. I try and mitigate the drain by running the game at medium settings, it seems to help a bit.

I’m assuming the battery drain is because the devs may also be running debugging behind the scenes while we play the game but I can’t confirm that

Also, try lowering your Resolution Scale to 0.5x or 0.25x (avoid dynamic). It will make the game a bit uglier, but it will drastically lower the strain on your phone’s processors and increase battery life.

Hey all,

In the next update we have worked on some optimisation to assist with this issue. Such as graphic resolution and framerate.
