Widescreen Gaming Forum. Ensuring your games work everywhere: widescreen, ultrawide, multi-monitor, and 4K.
Winter Burrow is out, and though it has no native ultrawide support, using the Party Animals tricks seemingly works to address that.
On a podcast from yesterday, our friends GOG talked about their Preservation Program and mentioned absent ultrawide support as one of the signs of game deterioration (as noted by our community member Phantom).
Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition, the non-VR version of Alien: Rogue Incursion, released today. According to its developer, the game supports ultrawide resolutions, though we have not independently verified this yet.
Newly announced Deus Ex Remastered has ultrawide, multi-monitor, and 4K support among its native features.
Borderlands 4 is another game set to have ultrawide support. The latest 2K games have protection from tampering, significantly limiting the games' modding capabilities, so the extent of native ultrawide support might be crucial here.
Hollow Knight: Silksong is to support 21:9 resolutions, as reported by our community member rafa_edition.
Dying Light: The Beast is to feature native ultrawide support, as pointed out by our community member Nanaki.
Gears of War: Reloaded explicitly advertises its ultrawide support, but it is a downgrade compared to Ultimate Edition. Though the vertical FOV is preserved, the camera placement does not match 16:9. To make matters worse, the new game uses EAC, preventing it from being improved by modders.
One of the next best things a developer can do if they have not added native ultrawide support yet is elevating a trusted community mod which offers that. The developer of the new indie game Heartworm has done just that. Props for valuing the community.
