Lower Graphics Settings
Review your in-game settings. Lowering demanding settings like motion effects can often reduce lag.
Check if Your Device is Overheating
Your device may overheat due to long play sessions or excessive load. This poses a risk of damaging your hardware, so you should stop playing for a while.
Consider Cleaning Your Device
If your device is overheating despite not being used much, check for dust buildup in the intake/exhaust vents or keyboard. You can find specialized cleaning tools for this in stores.
Free Storage Space

If you have low storage space, it can slow down processing. If your storage is nearly full with games and other files, try to free up some space.
Can Also Be Checked In-Game
Depending on your platform, you can check the "Device Load" or "Estimated Memory Usage" in-game.
Restart Your Device or the App
Restarting your device or the app may solve the problem. It seems that for iOS, restarting the device often helps. If that doesn't work, you can also try reinstalling the app.
Update Your OS to the Latest Version
If your OS is outdated, the game may not run properly. Check to make sure it's up to date.
Close Other Apps
Having other apps running in the background can cause performance issues. Be sure to close any unnecessary ones.
Get Better PC, Tablet, or Smartphone
If you can't enjoy the game fully due to hardware limitations, check the specs of any other devices you own to see if you can play on them. If that's not an option, you may need to consider upgrading your PC, tablet, or smartphone.
Recommended Specs & System Requirements
[PC] Set to High Performance

Setting your power options to High Performance can make the game run smoother. However, this will increase power consumption, so make sure you have a suitable charging setup.
[PS5] Contact the Manufacturer
If you can't find the cause, it could be due to issues like SSD degradation caused by heat buildup. Contact the manufacturer and arrange for repairs if necessary.
How to Fix Lag
Use a Wired Connection or Change Internet Plan
| Platform | Speed |
| PS5 / PC / Tablet / iPad / iOS / Android | 30 Mbps or higher *Ideally 70Mbps or higher |
There are free tools available online to check your internet speed, so use one to see if your connection is suitable for gaming. If your wireless connection is unstable, try using a wired connection for more stability. If it's still slow, you may need to consider changing your internet plan itself.
