Overview
PCGamingWiki says ultrawide resolutions work, but the HUD does not scale past 16:9 (it stays in the centre) and cutscenes are windowboxed; a community tool removes the cutscene bars. The FOV slider tops out at 75 degrees vertical, and extra FOV can be added by editing video.scr. I could not open the community tool page itself, so its version and compatibility are unknown, and 32:9 specifics were not confirmed.

Steam current buildSep 20, 2026
Checked PCGamingWiki Video/FOV sections, Steam appdetails (239140 is the base 2015 game) and Flawless Widescreen repo (only Dying Light 2 exists there, deliberately not used). Lower confidence: community cutscene tool version/state and 32:9 behavior.
