Overview
Nixxes ships 21:9 and 32:9 (and 48:9 triple monitor) support, and a Nixxes community rep said cutscenes are adjusted for ultrawide. Patch 1.1.47.0 added a HUD Widescreen Scale option (default is a centered 16:9-style HUD) and a launcher toggle to disable cinematic letterboxing. Pick 'Auto' for Display, since forcing 21:9 was reported to leave side borders.

Patch history & verification
1.1.47.0Sep 19, 2026
PCGamesN and Steam patch notes: added HUD position/widescreen scale for ultrawide and launcher option to disable cinematic letterboxing.
1.4.59.0Sep 19, 2026
Newest patch notes found on Steam news; PCGamingWiki confirms ultrawide and multi-monitor. Menu width, exact letterbox default, and pre-rendered video behavior not confirmed, so menu_support and black_bars are conservative. Flawless Widescreen repo has no Horizon module.
