Split Fiction is one of 2025’s best games and another hit for Hazelight Studios. Having sold a million copies in just two days, Split Fiction is proof that co-op games are here to stay. It also has a pretty involved story with plenty of cutscenes sprinkled between exhilarating gameplay sections.
PC players on ultrawide monitors can enjoy the gameplay parts with proper support, but the cutscenes will have pillarboxing unfortunately. If you want a consistent experience, here is how you may fix the cutscenes issue in Split Fiction while playing at ultrawide.
Fixing the Split Fiction Ultrawide Cutscenes on PC
On PC, Split Fiction supports ultrawide monitors, but as mentioned, it’s limited to just gameplay. We’ll need to use HxD to edit the game’s executable for cutscenes.
This isn’t as tricky as it sounds and works quite well.
That’s all you need to do, and the next time you launch Split Fiction, cutscenes will play out normally on your ultrawide display without any pillarboxing or black bars.
If something goes wrong during this, verify the game files through the Steam client.
Keep in mind that potential updates might reset the executable, and you will have to follow this process again.
Once that’s sorted, here is how you canbeat the Dragon Slayerin Split Fiction, andescape the Sandfish.

When he isn’t spending an unhealthy amount of time in Slay the Spire, he’s probably trying out yet another retro-shooter or playing Dark Souls for the 50th time.
