Overview
Gameplay is Hor+ at 21:9 and 32:9 with no fix needed, and PCGamingWiki gives it WSGF gold for ultrawide. WSGF notes the crosshair is larger than at 16:9 and the HUD sits at the screen edges; an FOV slider (75-120) is in the multiplayer options and also applies to singleplayer. Not rated excellent because I could not confirm a centered-HUD option or test 32:9 firsthand.

Read PCGamingWiki Video table (ultrawide true, multi-monitor true, FOV 75-120) and WSGF page (Hor+ ultrawide, edge HUD, oversized crosshair). Could not confirm current build number; cutscene behaviour taken from WSGF listing (Hor+), lower confidence.
