Clair Obscur Expedition 33 features heads with its jaw-dropping visuals, but if you’re rocking an ultrawide monitor, you’re probably wondering—can it look even better? The good news is yes, it can. If you’ve just stepped into this surreal Belle Époque-inspired world and want to unlock its full cinematic potential, enabling ultrawide support is a must. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to make that happen so you can experience the game in all its immersive widescreen glory.
While Clair Obscur Expedition 33 does offer partial support for ultrawide displays, working fairly well on 21:9 resolutions, players using 32:9 monitors (like 5120×1440) are running into issues. After the first duel, the camera reportedly zooms in awkwardly on the character’s waist, breaking immersion and limiting the field of view. This seems to be a classic scaling issue, where the game crops the top and bottom instead of expanding the horizontal view. So, how to get rid of this problem?
