Overview

Black Ops III runs missions in proper Hor+ ultrawide with a 65-120 FOV slider, and holds a WSGF Silver award. The HUD and menus are stretched, and the campaign hub areas stretch too. Changing resolution mid-game can also stretch or squash the image until you restart.

Patch history & verification

Current Steam build (number not confirmed)Oct 17, 2026
Verified via PCGamingWiki (WSGF Silver award, stretched HUD/menu/hub notes, FOV 65-120 from the dev Twitter). There's no FWS module for BO3 (only BO1/BO2). Online safety is set to avoid because of competitive multiplayer. Mission cutscene behavior isn't explicitly documented (lower confidence).
