In-engine cutscenes on ultrawide displays are cut off at the top


Issue Description:

If you play on an ultrawide display (5120x1440) some cutscenes (those that seem to be played in-engine) are not played correctly. The top (and maybe the bottom) is cut off. Halve the face of the reject is missing quite frequently but it hurts every scene, of course.

Edit: Loading screens seem to be doing fine. Some of the cutscenes that look in-engine seem to work as well. The “who am I” cutscene after the prologue might. The cutscenes that work do not use the full width of the display but are cut off at the sides. Which is perfectly fine if that is the workaround.

Steps to Reproduce:
Start a cutscene with in-game graphics. Prologue in particular. (Not sure about the actual intro movie, cannot watch both at the same time.)

Platform:
Steam

Reproduction Rate:

I have the same issue. I would be happy with black bars on the sides to be able to see the cinematics correctly. But this made me refund the game. I will get it again when/if this is fixed.
Marvel Midnight Suns has the same issue, by the way.
