The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing

This is the first game in an upcoming trilogy of story-driven Action-RPG. Monster hunter extraordinaire Van Helsing wields swords, guns and spells while exchanging sarcastic comments with his ghost ladypet. On the whole the game is strangely reminiscent of the original Dungeon Siege, but maybe that's just because my favorite mule back then was named Katarina.

Solutions & Issues

Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues

Native support.
The game will always run at your current desktop resolution; in-game resolution setting is only used to lower the pixel count.

Negligible issue: the startup logo stretches (looks ok only in 16:9) !

Ultra/Super-Wide (21:9/32:9) Specific Solution & Issues

Native support.

Loading screens are perfectly anamorphic, but FMVs are windowboxed.
Cut-scenes are not letterboxed all the way to the right of the screen.

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution & Issues

Native support.

Loading screens are perfectly anamorphic, but FMVs are windowboxed.
Cut-scenes are letterboxed only on the left screen, and dialog text is offset to the left.

4k UHD Specific Solution & Issues

(The game supports UI scaling independently of rendering resolution, which might come in handy.)
