Fixing the Demon Slayer The Hinokami Chronicles Ultrawide issue
Like many PC releases from Japanese studios, Ultrawide support is missing from most of their titles. This has sadly been a neglected feature, even in bigger budget titles like the recent Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Thankfully, the PC widescreen community has been developing tools to alleviate that and add support for various games. To add ultrawide support in Demon Slayer The Hinokami Chronicles, follow the steps below.
All credits for this tool go to Architect_GG, who has been adding support in various titles over the years.
