Xbox gamepass - A plague tale - Tiny window Issue

BobbyRösehag · Jan 25, 2020

I am trying to play "A Plague Tale" but the game starts in a tiny window up in the right corner and I can't make any changes to the settings since it is to small. I have tried:

Re-installing the game.

Repairing the game thru the app-settings.

Updating my graphic drivers.

Pressing Alt+Enter(made the screen bigger but zoomed in to a small portion of it so really did not help).

Tried finding a config file but MS hides the files so I can't find them.

Xbox gamepass sure is great...

Were sorry you are experiencing this issue.

A common solution may be to press control + to resize the screen. If this only occurs with the specific application please contact microsoft support. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us

Sadly this does not help.

Yeah I had a problem with the app that I could not even download any games for a long time. Then yesterday it just worked again...

The problem is that I can't really do any changes to the settings since I can't see the menu it is so small. My main screen is set to 1080p. It seems that the game window stays the same size no matter what I do, I tried to zoom in but did not help. Maybe
I can blindly click myself to the game settings but I need to know what order they are and I can't find any videos of people going thru the menus.

This all happened when I first started the game, It was doing that annoying thing where Xbox wants to sign at the same time as the game boots and after being in the main menu for like three seconds It glitched out with the sign in screen.

Hi,

You're lucky you managed to download the game. At the time of typing this reply I've been been trying to download it for the past hour with no success, but I digress..

While I don't have this game yet, I've seen a few issues with some games from the Windows Store and Game Pass with weird issues like this.

What resolution is your desktop set to?

What resolution is the game set to?

If like the above game resolution question you can actually see the in-game options, what display modes are present if any? I'm talking about options such as 'Fullscreen', 'Borderless' and 'Windowed'. I know these settings exist on the Steam version, so
I'm assuming they're also in the Windows Store/Game Pass version? Does, 'Fullscreen' take you to fullscreen?

If your desired graphics resolution was 1080P (or 1920x1080) and you set your desktop resolution to this, then ran the game, is it fullscreen now?

Sorry for the questions. Ever since I saw the tech breakdown of this game via Digital Foundry I've been interested in playing it on PC. Once I get mine to download I'll let you know if I have the same issue.

Hi again,

Did you manage to resolve your issue?

I finally downloaded the game yesterday, but I don't have the same issue. My game loaded into full screen from launch. Can you please provide me with the specifications of your PC?

Thanks.
