Free Shaders

That Upgrade Your Game

Zenteon delivers next-level visuals with a collection of free shaders made specifically for gamers. Whether you're pushing the limits of your build, diving into open-world adventures, or capturing screenshots, our shader packs add smooth lighting, rich shadows, and striking detail—without sacrificing performance.

We know what matters to gamers: high framerates, clean visuals, and smooth performance across different systems. That’s why each shader pack in the Zenteon collection is optimized for low end and midrange hardware. You don’t need a top of the line PC to use our shaders in your favorite games. Each one is designed to be easy and intuitive to configure, so you can spent less time tweaking settings, and more time playing.

Our shaders are designed to be complementary, meaning they enhance your game’s visual style without interfering with its core look or performance. You can use them to boost realism, introduce stylized lighting, or add subtle effects that bring your favorite games to life.

  • Zenteon: TurboGI Free Global Illumination Shader

    Zenteon: TurboGI

    TurboGI focuses on high-performance lighting and shading. It simulates global illumination faster than many post-processing effects, giving you more natural light behavior without the heavy performance cost of typical GI. Ideal for open environments, dark interiors, and players who value immersive lighting on a tight budget.

  • Zenteon: Crystallis Free Film Grain Shader

    Zenteon: Crystallis

    Crystallis is designed for clear, accurate film grain, allowing anything from subtle color grains for a more vintage feel, to gritty black-and-white images like those in early 1800s photography. It uses a few tricks to emulate hundreds of grains per pixel at almost no cost and has a high-quality mode that simulates grains directly.

  • Zenteon: Xenon Free Bloom Shader

    Zenteon: Xenon

    Smooth and modern, Xenon delivers high quality and high performance bloom, meant to give results closer to that of an actual camera than typically seen in games. It provides a sleek but detailed output that adds bloom without blowing out or blurring your visuals.

  • Zenteon: Local Contrast Free Local Contrast Shader

    Zenteon: Local Contrast

    For gamers who want a cleaner, more defined look without over-the-top effects or aggressive sharpening, Local Contrast enhances your visuals by boosting key details. It increases visibility in both bright and dark areas, making your game easier to see and more enjoyable to play while being very light on performance.

  • Zenteon: Framework Free Utility Shader

    Zenteon: Framework

    Framework is a utility shader that provides scene data for customization and shader development. It supplies data for other shaders that require it and helps developers extend their own ReShade effects.

Why Zenteon Shaders Stand Out

Zenteon shaders are designed for efficiency, accuracy, and creative control—improving visuals without overwhelming your game. Unlike some shaders that boost contrast or overdo lighting effects, Zenteon shaders are transparent and impactful, letting you shape the look you want. TurboGI, Crystallis, Xenon, and Local Contrast offer focused improvements for indirect lighting, film grain, bloom, and detail enhancement, while Framework adds extra data for other shaders to use. Built for performance, Zenteon shaders balance quality and speed, running smoothly even on low-end and mid-range hardware.
