v2.6.0
What's New
Background Mode
GameShift now runs lightweight optimizations even when no game is active. Standby list cleaning, timer resolution, power plan management, process priority persistence, and task deferral all work in the background and automatically back off when a game launches.
System Tweaks Panel
Seven one-time registry-level optimizations available from Settings. Disable Game DVR, HAGS, MPO, Power Throttling, and Memory Integrity, or optimize MMCSS scheduling and Win32PrioritySeparation. Each tweak stores original values for clean revert and tracks whether a reboot is needed.
Game Profiles (9 built-in)
Per-game process-level optimizations that activate on launch and revert on exit. Handles process priority, CPU affinity (with Intel hybrid P-core detection), launcher process demotion, and per-game memory cleaning thresholds.
Built-in profiles for:
- Overwatch 2 -- P-core pinning, Battle.net demotion, aggressive memory cleaning
- Valorant -- P-core pinning, Riot Client demotion
- League of Legends -- Riot Client + LeagueClient demotion
- Deadlock -- P-core pinning, 1 GB memory cleaning threshold
- osu! -- Timer resolution focused
- Arknights: Endfield -- P-core pinning, GRYPHLINK launcher demotion, 1 GB threshold
- Wuthering Waves -- P-core pinning (2-thread dominant UE4), Kuro launcher demotion
- Genshin Impact -- HoYoPlay demotion, 1 GB threshold for fast-travel memory leak
- Soulframe (placeholder) -- based on Warframe/Evolution Engine, will be updated at launch
Overwatch 2 Competitive Preset
Full competitive preset with Defender exclusions, fullscreen + DPI override, Battle.net priority reduction, firewall allow rule, and 9 contextual tips (Reflex, Anti-Lag+ warning, render scale, memory leak, polling rate, HAGS, alt-tab freeze mitigation, and more).
