Resolution Fix?
This game seems capped at 1366x768 for me? It's rather jarring, how do I get it to go up to 1920x1080?

Try switching between dx11 and dx12 modes and changing display modes, borderless, fullscreen etc.

Read this fixed the issue for some people.

Yeah, evidently dx11 allows me to hit 1920x1080, it's just dx12 that's capped for me. Thank you. Not sure why this is the case though.

No problem, there does seem to be issues regarding display settings, it appears that the game isn't correctly detecting display hardware for some and HDR is broken for everyone.


When I first launched the game it was also set to 1336*768 on a large TV so looked dreadful.

Hopefully this gets fixed ASAP.

Oh and also update to your latest Gpu drivers if you haven't already.

Mine caps at 1080p. Weird because life is strange 1 and 2 both go up to 1440p for me.

Having a similar problem. Highest resolution option for me is 1440p but I'm playing on a 4k screen. Even when I change to windowed from fullscreen, the highest I can pick is 1440p

Edit: I tried a fix from a post in this thread and it worked. I was always using DX12 and it wouldn't let me go above 1440p no matter if I used fullscreen, borderless or windowed. So I booted up the DX11 version and it would allow me to change to 4k and save it. Then when I went back to DX12, it was still preselected to 4k.

So thank you to Johnnius
