Overview

PCGamingWiki lists Directive 8020's ultrawide support as 'limited': cutscenes are Vert- (cropped/zoomed rather than showing more) with some incorrect FOV moments, and UI elements do not scale correctly at 21:9 or 32:9. This is more cautious than some third-party YouTube/blog claims of full native support, and is corroborated by Steam Community complaints; k4sh's Nexus Mods fix for cutscenes/FOV is the community-recommended remedy, but base support out of the box is imperfect.

Patch history & verification

Unknown current buildSep 22, 2026
Corrected initial impression from marketing/blog sources claiming flawless native ultrawide: PCGamingWiki's structured data explicitly marks ultrawidescreen as 'limited' with Vert- cutscenes, incorrect FOV in places, and UI scaling problems; downgraded overall_status to partial and attached k4sh's Nexus fix as the recommended mitigation. Could not confirm an exact current patch/build number from available sources.
