Overview
Banished has genuinely excellent native ultrawide support: WSGF's detailed report confirms Hor+ scaling with a native method across widescreen, ultra/super-wide, multi-monitor and 4K, rates the HUD as 'Optimized' for ultra-wide, and includes verified 21:9 and 32:9 screenshots for both gameplay and menus. Icons can look slightly oversized at ultrawide but are adjustable in the options menu, and there are no cutscenes to worry about (this is a city-builder). No fix or mod is needed.

Patch history & verification
v1.0.7Sep 22, 2026
Confirmed native Hor+ ultrawide support at both 21:9 and 32:9 directly from WSGF's detailed report (gold widescreen/ultrawidescreen award) and cross-checked with PCGamingWiki's Video section (widescreen resolution=true, ultrawidescreen=true). Exact current Steam build number could not be confirmed since the game is largely unmaintained; WSGF's own tested version was 1.0.4.
