By default,Star Wars Outlawsis programmed to run at a 21:9 aspect ratio. Some players will no doubt appreciate this, as it can help make the experience feelmore like a movie than a video game. However, as most people will probably be playing the game on a 16:9 display, it will mean that they’ll need to put up with black bars at the top and bottom of their screen.

These black bars probably aren’t going to bother ultrawide users too much, nor are they likely to be all that offputting for cinema lovers. However, considering they take up 25% of the screen on a standard 16:9 monitor or television, it’s understandable why some players may want to remove the black bars inStar Wars Outlaws. This guide explains how.
