Overview

Return of the Obra Dinn renders at a fixed 800x450 (16:9) internally and scales anamorphically to other aspect ratios, so ultrawide users get a stretched or pillarboxed 16:9 image rather than real extra view. A community BepInEx resolution-increase mod exists on GitHub, but the author explicitly warns it is an incomplete first draft that cannot be used to finish the game, so I am not recommending it as a working fix.

Fixes

No known fix yet.

A BepInEx plugin (ObraDinnResolution on GitHub) can increase render resolution, but its own README states it is 'a rough first draft' that 'can not be used to play through the entire game,' so it is not a reliable fix and is not recommended.

Patch history & verification

current Steam buildSep 23, 2026
Verified via PCGamingWiki Video infobox (widescreen resolution notes: scaled from 800x450 16:9; ultrawidescreen=false, non-16:9 resolutions are anamorphic) and the ObraDinnResolution GitHub README, which self-describes as an unfinished, unreliable mod. Rated as unsupported with no dependable fix, consistent with both sources.
