I can't get 4k resolution.

[Da Gooze]

So how do I get 4k resolution on this game? I have a wide screen monitor that supports 4k resolution and this game doesn't give me the option. Why and how do I manually get it as an option for a resolution? Thanks.

I was about to create the same post. In the description of the game, the say literally this "Overcooked! 1 & 2 infused with 4k goodness running at a smooth 60 FPS", but the highest resolution that I'm allowed to use is 1900x1200...

Same. I have a 1440p ultra-wide and have to play in a small window... Not great for a modern remaster of a quite recent game...

the game doesn't support ultrawide and because of that somehow fails to grasp that a 3440×1440 resolution contains a 2560×1440 resolution, which is why you won't get the option to select it

to counter this laughable flaw, you need to temporarily set your desktop resolution to the 16:9 equivalent of your 21:9/32:9 monitor's resolution:

(Windows 11)
- close the game
- open the Display Settings
- scroll to the Scale & Layout section
- select Display Resolution
- pick the correct option from the list

this will enable you to select the native (higher than 1080p) resolution of your monitor ingame

save your ingame settings afterwards, close the game and revert the desktop resolution to your ultrawide one

the game will remember your resolution settings... just... never touch them again...

if you're unable to select a 16:9 equivalent in your desktop resolution settings because it's unavailable, you might need to "unlock" it first by manually adding it to the list of resolution options

(AMD)
- open the AMD Adrenalin driver software (alt + R)
- click on Settings (gear icon, top right)
- click on Display
- go to the Custom Resolutions (right page, below Custom Color)
- click on Create New+
- change the horizontal Resolution (Px) value
- set the Timing Standard to CTV - Reduced Blinking
- finish by hitting Create

return to your desktop resolution settings
