Custom resolution

As of version 1.5, resolution cannot be changed in-game.
Resolution should be automatically determined; however, users have reported resolution issues since this update.[5][6]
Set a custom resolution argument[4]

Use the following command line arguments: -screen-width 1920 -screen-height 1080

Replace 1920 and 1080 with the desired width and height.

Notes

Some non-standard aspects (for example, 5760x1080 for three 1080p monitors) can cause HUD scaling issues.[4]
Re-enable the Unity Screen Selector[7]

See the fix on PCGW's Unity Engine article for more details.
