No 1080p option
I have a two monitor setup and a third HDMI running to my TV. When I run big picture on my TV, or set the monitor to my TV in setup, 1080p is no longer an option. My highest resolution is 720p.

Any solutions?

Same problem here? I have my PC connected to my 1080P LG TV. All the other games recognize 1080p. Why not this one?

Make sure game is set to exclusive fullscreen and fullscreen.
Game did the same thing on my 1080p tv with my HTPC vid HDMI.

i did notice one issue if you have a 1440p monitor don't select 1080p if you have it on exclusive full screen or it crashes the game. i was just doing it to compare framerates, it works as long as not on exclusive.

having the same issue, with one tv hooked up... says 720p only, no option for 1080p. Went into all my other games and it shows 1080p... its a game issue and hopefully its fixed soon

Have you tried Display port to the tv? HDMI has issues now and again with some games.
it is probably a bandwidth issue and it is reverting to a lower resolution to save bandwidth, unplug one of the other monitors and see if it then accepts the 1080p signal to tv.

tried the exclusive and no luck. The TV is quite far away (35+ ft around the walls stuff) so I only have a HDMI cable to test. I don't think my TV has Display Port either.

If the 2013 Tomb Raider works with my current setup I don't see why the sequel couldn't do the same either using my GTX 980.

Found a work-around that seemed to fixed it permanently for me. It's weird but YMMV.

1) Change the resolution from your windows driver panel to something lower than your 1080p.
2) Change it back to 1080p
3) Launch the game (the launcher with the initial options will not show 1080p but that is fine).
4) Go into the in-game display options
5) See if the 1080p option is available. If not then try to enable exclusive mode.
6) Hopefully the 1080p option will now be available to you like it did for me.
7) Create a new game right away and you can exit the game normally.


After the above steps after relaunching the game the launcher still shows 1080p and in-game it continues to be 1080p so the fix stuck. Hope this helps you guys :)
