Overview
Mad Max's open-world backgrounds render at 21:9, but PCGamingWiki and a dedicated WSGF forum thread titled 'MAD MAX 21:9 Support Broken' both confirm cutscenes, menus, and loading screens stay locked to 16:9 with black bars. RoseTheFlower's community fix addresses the cutscene black bars; 32:9 is not well documented so it is rated conservatively as fix-required.

Patch history & verification
Current Steam buildSep 23, 2026
Cross-checked PCGamingWiki's infobox notes against the WSGF forum thread confirming ultrawide support was reported broken for cutscenes/menus/loading screens, and confirmed the RoseTheFlower cutscene fix is still hosted on GitHub. No 32:9-specific verification found, so that field is conservative.
