Overview
On a 32:9 display Civ VI genuinely shows more map with true Hor+ scaling rather than stretching, a real win for a strategy game where screen real estate matters. HUD panels spread out to the far edges of the screen rather than staying centered, and diplomacy/leader scenes plus menus stay boxed to 16:9. 2K has never issued official ultrawide support statements, so behavior is community-verified, not developer-confirmed.

Fixes
No known fix yet.
No dedicated fix or mod exists for the way HUD panels spread toward the far edges, or for leader-scene/menu pillarboxing. This is simply how the engine renders at 32:9.

Map expands correctly Hor+, HUD panels sit at far left/right edges.

Playable and map-heavy screens look great, but leader scenes and main menu stay pillarboxed.
