The Plucky Squireis a visually stunning title that makes excellent use of Unreal Engine to create a living-breathing room full of detailed objects, believable lighting, and some fantastic models. The PC version has plenty of settings to adjust, and the game really comes out at max settings. However, like many other Unreal Engine releases, post-processing toggles like chromatic aberration are absent in the settings. Here is how you may disable the depth of field effect in The Plucky Squire.
