21:9 ultra wide screen support?

[Coldhands]

Anyone here tried Dishonored 2 on an ultra wide, or know if it supports 21:9?
I've heard performance in general isn't so good, so if you are running it in 21:9, what's your performance and settings been, and on what hardware?
Thanks for the info.

Has good support for 21:9, runs on mine very nicely. Like most other people are suffering with, the FPS is rather up and down, with high settings and maximum AA my i5 6600K/GTX 970 can go between 80+ FPS down to 35-40 in the early open area level. Hoping the patch will sort things out regarding that, but otherwise 21:9 runs fine.

3440x1440 gtx1080
I get 60fps in closed areas with some drops, and 40-60 in open areas, Ultra settings.
I'm sure if they fix it it will run 60fps easily even in open areas.

Here also 21:9 3440x1440
Never drops for me below 60fps anywhere. Everything on ultra, only HBAO+ is turned off because I see no difference vs performance gain with it off.
My setup:
i7 5930k 3.5GHz
2xGTX 1080 sli (I know the game does't really support sli)
32GB RAM
SSD Samsung 850 EVO

Thanks guys!
I've got a new 3440x1440 monitor on the way, and my hardware is pretty similar to Tom's (970 and an i5), so I'll probably pick Dishonored 2 up once the screen arrives.

21:9 support itself is great.
I'm running 2560x1080 on a GTX 1070 gaming X and the performance combined with the erratic mouse behaviour is downright vomit inducing.
Game itself is great, though. You might wanna wait a little bit till it's (hopefully) fixed.

I'd watch to see what the verdict on performance is once the patch hits because the game will be unplayable for you at 3440*1440 and the quality presets make very little difference to performance at present.

^Have they said when that patch is coming out?

[Lunethex]

The game runs fine at ultrawide. Start and beaten with it. No issues.

[TheokolesTW]

Yeah it does it pretty well.

Supposed to be this week, but don't be too surprised if it's next week.

[Coldhands]

^Cool. Well, it'll probably be next week before the screen shows up anyway.

He's using a GTX 970 which less than half as fast as that Titan X... It's going to be horrible.

[Coldhands]

^If it's still horrible after the patch, then I'll lower the settings, the res, or I'll use my old monitor.
Or I'll just upgrade.

As Ze Kaptin intimated a 970 will not necessarily struggle at that res, but you will have to lower the settings significantly. Which for an ultra wide is less than ideal.
I used to rock two 970s but these days sli isn't reliable.
I'd personally recommend at least a 1070 or even 980ti..
