Overview

PCGamingWiki lists ultrawide as supported (true) and FOV as not applicable (false); multi-monitor is 'unknown'. Steam news for 1.4 mentions UI and QOL changes but no aspect-ratio work. 32:9, HUD anchoring and menu behavior are still unconfirmed and the other values are conservative.

Patch history & verification

Patch 1.3.11 (2026-07-16); Update 1.4 previewed in dev diaries, not yet released per Steam newsSep 20, 2026
Second-pass re-check: Re-read PCGamingWiki (multi-monitor 'unknown', ultrawide true) and 40 Steam news items; latest numbered patch found is 1.3.11 (2026-07-16) with 1.4 in preview. No ultrawide/32:9 evidence found; consider downgrading 32:9 if nothing surfaces.
unconfirmedSep 20, 2026
Verified PCGamingWiki stub (ultrawide = true, FOV = false) and Steam appid/name. Checked the Flawless Widescreen public repo (fws_repo.xml) on 2026-09-20: no module for this game. Could not confirm the exact live patch number or 32:9 behavior; low confidence.
