From having extra space in an apartment to having extra pixels on a monitor, priorities are always straight for players. Now, if you are someone who has an ultrawide monitor and wants to enjoy games that are visually rich, it is obvious that you’d first look for details regarding a game’s compatibility with ultrawide screens. Elden Ring, the OG RPG that made its mark back in February 2022, is one such game that is very visually rich and charming, especially when it comes to graphics. So, this led to many wondering whether the game supports ultrawide. Well, on paper it doesn’t, at least officially. But there are a bunch of mods that let you tweak the game’s files and then play the game on an ultrawide screen without black bars. However, now that Elden Ring NightReign is scheduled for a May 2025 release, similar curiosity has risen among interested fans. So, if you too are interested to know whether Elden Ring NightReign will support ultrawide screens, this is just the article you need.
What is Elden Ring NightReign? Well, it is a standalone game that is based on the original game’s universe. Featuring both multiplayer and single-player modes, it seems that the game’s release will be huge. But not all are happy with this. Instead of providing this game as a part of the Deluxe package for players who purchase it with Elden Ring, the developers decided to include it separately. This has led to some backlash but if the game can deliver, this backlash can fade away for good. Anyway, coming back to the topic of ultrawide, given the track record of Elden Ring not supporting ultrawide screens by default, does it mean Elden Ring NightReign will also follow suit?

Since there is no official information regarding the game’s support for ultrawide screens, it is safe to assume for now that Elden Ring NightReign will not be ultrawide compatible by default. But does this mean playing the game on an ultrawide won’t be possible? This standalone is also built on the same engine the original game was built on, which is mod-friendly. So, it is quite possible that even though the game will feature black bars while running on an ultrawide screen, there will be certain mods that remove it.
Right now, all we can do is wait for the game’s release, which is scheduled for May 30, 2025. After the release, modders will most likely get to work and develop the most demanding mods, especially the UW support mod.
With that said, we hope that now you know all about the ultrawide support details of Elden Ring NightReign. If you find this article informative, consider visiting Android Gram for more such interesting content on all things gaming.
