With some emulators (at least DOSBox-X) you can enable modern graphics modes that show up in SVGA in the emulated DOS and can be supported by DOS software just like any other modes. Anyone making DOS software today that isn't going explicitly for a retro look can try to detect and support a few modes like 1920x1080 and only fall back to more common old modes when necessary.

Yeah that's really cool how flexible the graphics are.
