Overview
Hyper Light Drifter has no ultrawide support and pillarboxes permanently to 16:9; PCGamingWiki flags its ultrawidescreen field as unconfirmed/false and it is absent from the Flawless Widescreen repo. Long-running Steam discussion threads (multiple, spanning 2016 through recent years) confirm no working fix has ever surfaced, and one thread notes early-access builds briefly supported wider views before the shipped release locked it to 16:9.
