21:9 Works!
Very happy to say that this game runs great with a 21:9 resolution.

I am running it at 3440x1440 and it looks and runs amazing.

Really? That's a bummer. What video card are you on?
I have an Nvidia 980ti with latest drivers. I have the game set with all options on (fog, paper etc.)

Also it appears that 21:9 is simply a stretched image rather than native ultrawide. Lame.

Jeah, it works but : GTX 970SLI @I7 4770k 4,5ghz

Had to disable one Card completely! If not, frames are going down from average FPS of 49 to 35 FPS. Plus SLI will give you heavy stuttering,crashes and whatnot...

Tried to use the other Card as a Dedicated Physx renderer - Absolutly no increase in fps!

- Playing with 2GPU´s is impossible (or at least no option) atm!
- Playing with a Dedicated Physx rendering Card is also impossible (has no effect) atm.
- Playing at 2560x1080 will lead to a stretched/cutted 16:9 image in cutscenes (terrible!).
- Playing at 2560x1080 has no 100% native support - Ascpect Ratio is OK, but the image is simply stretched as Rayza said before.

- Playing at 3440x1440 or higher will force you to stay at 30FPS even if you "SLIed" your System (you cant use the second card) - Maybe a Titan X or 980TI would do the job.
- Playing at very high Resolutions gives you terrible texture popins with less then 4GB Ram.

Overall the game is playable, even in 3440x1440 but you really need to have a strong Rig and to fiddle a bit in your ini´s to advance more FPS.

Imho the graphics of Batman Arkham Knight are just okay, nothing more...

It's a shame that 21:9 is not properly supported. 21:9 aspect ratio is fine during gameplay, but when it transitions to in-engine cutscenes, it will stretch a 16:9 aspect ratio to 21:9.

I doubt that Rocksteady/External PC developer will bother fixing this. We can only hope that the guys at Flawless widescreen can address it.

Yeah with the state of everything else i think it's extremely unlikely they will care about ultrawide users. Have Flawless Widescreen actually done any recent games? I thought they had stopped

I dont think so. It looks correct on my screen. I will have to take a closer look tonight to be sure.

Agreed that the cutscenes have bars on the sides, but that is a minor point.

i am running it at 2560*1080. there are 2 types of cutscenes. first one has the black bars left and right, second one is definitely 16:9 stretched. i really hope there will be a fix for this soon. won't play the game like this. :meatytears::ss13down:

Definitely stretched on mine. The characters look stupidly wide.

I was happy to see that the actual gameplay supports 21:9 for us members of the Ultrawide Master Race, but holy crap, at least put black bars or something on the cutscenes, they look awful.

Yup same here. Doesn't look stretched on my Dell U3415W.

Really? You think I come in here with that level of detail and I dont own the game? You think I own 343 other titles but not that one? What a detective you are. You found me out! Wow!

Dork.

It's not just in game cutscenes that mess up. Check out this example I recorded in game. This kinda stuff is littered thoughout the game. 21:9 Broken Example
