How to change FOV in Fallout 4 (PC and consoles)

With an endless amount of television and monitor sizes, it’s no surprise that the default field of view (FOV) in games isn’t a one-size-fits-all setting. While many games include an FOV slider within their options menu, Bethesda has yet to implement one for Fallout 4. (That’s right, not even in the .)

Luckily, the c♔ommunity has found ways to edit t✨he FOV settings by using console commands on PC or installing helpful mods on PlayStation and Xbox. 

How to change FOV in Fallout 4 on PC using console commands

In Fallout 4 there are two different FOV settings. The first value is the FOV when viewing your Pip-Boy, the second is the gameplay FOV. It’s important to remember the order of these values when ܫadjusting your settings using console commands. 

1. Open the console by pressing the tilde (`) key
2. Type: fov 80 100
3. Then type: saveini
4. Close the console

The example above will set your Pip-Boy FOV to 80 and your gameplay FOV to 100, but you can use the numbers you’re aiming for. It’s important that you don’t forget the “saveini” command, otherwise the next time you load the game, your settings will be reverted. 

How to change FOV in Fallout 4 on Xbox and PlayStation using mods

Xbox and PlayStation p🔜layers don’t have access to the convenient PC console commands but there are still options available to them. Using (the built-in m💯odding menu) that the community have created, settings such as the field of view can be adjusted.

Unfortunately many mods have been broken due to Bethesda pushing a plethora of updates (due in large part to Amazon’s ) which means mod authors will need time to update their work. Over time, new or previously available mods that added FOV sliders into Fallout 4 will be updated and so will this guide. (Hang i🦋nꦛ there PlayStation players, we’ll keep you updated!)
