Might be that Penumbra: Overture doesn't support your resolution.
However, you can go to the games folder and find file called settings.cfg and open it into notepad and then set the resolution you want manually.

In this case, it would be:
Screen Width="1680" Height="1050"

Also, make sure that you check the fullscreen from there!
If it says FullScreen="false", set it to FullScreen="true".
Save the file and run the game.

No, you can't change it in menu over 1280x1024.
Higher resolutions can only be made by editing the settings.cfg file.

But if you edit the file from the game folder, you have to delete this file from your documents folder. Otherwise the resolution will no take effect.
