Can Confirm this is an issue for my 3440x1440 - 21:9 Ultrawide Screen too.
Tried all of the options above with no solution.

Also Noticed the Round Score Screen textures are not Scaling for Ultrawide, they get pulled apart and separated.

Not game breaking but annoying, never a problem in OW1.

Same issue for me. Also using a 3440x1440, 21:9 ultrawide screen.
Tried all the mentioned options and played around with the settings but no success.
No issues in other games.

Hello Jambrix. As can be reported by me, as well as countless others in this thread, there is no working solution to the problem. We have tried everything, resetting settings multiple times, swapping displays, reconfigured Nvidia gpu settings, everything suggested and more. But nothing works. This was never an issue in OW1, nor is it an issue in any other game.

So I will have to insist that this is an internal game-related problem that lies not on the end users, but the game code itself.

Having the same issue myself. Seeing slight black bars even when setting the resolution in game to match my native monitor, and setting aspect ration to 21:9.

I have the same, black bars on the left & right side of the Screen in the Main Menu.
About 50px of black spaces.

I’m on 3840x1600 @ 160hz (LG 38GN950) even a little wider than 21:9.

Diablo 3 is the worse in the Main menu.
The game is from 2012, on ultawide screens the main menu is completly broken on the sides. Because the the 3D scene is not wide enugh. You can Google “Diablo 3 Ultrawide screen” and find some pictures how borken is it.

also have done the same steps. I set resolution native to 3440 x 1440 and 21:9 aspect ratio. Its wider than 16:9 but not full. I do still have small black bars on each side. Id say it seems like 20:9 when it should be 21:9. Changing FOV and changing ratio around did fix issue.

I can’t understand that, in Overwatch 1 the resolution works fine at 21:9 and now it doesn’t. Where are the beta testers or were they all just signed up for the beta to play but not test at all?

They also just cut off the tops and bottoms to display 21:9 like they did in OW1

33440 x 1440 here and I have the same problem. Honestly, it’s a super minimal portion of my screen so it doesn’t really bother me at all, but I wouldn’t complain if they fixed it. And I say “fixed” because this clearly is not intentional.
