With an endless amount of television and monitor sizes, it’s no surprise that the defaultfield 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 forFallout 4. (That’s right, not even in thenext-gen update.)
Luckily, the community has found ways to edit the FOV settings by using console commands on PC or installing helpful mods on PlayStation and Xbox.
How to change FOV inFallout 4on PC using console commands
InFallout 4there 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 adjusting your settings using console commands.
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.

Xbox and PlayStation players don’t have access to the convenient PC console commands but there are still options available to them. UsingBethesda mods(the built-in modding menu) that the community have created, settings such as the field of view can be adjusted.

Unfortunatelymany mods have been brokendue to Bethesda pushing a plethora of updates (due in large part to Amazon’sFallout TV series) which means mod authors will need time to update their work. Over time, new or previously available mods that added FOV sliders intoFallout 4will be updated and so will this guide. (Hang in there PlayStation players, we’ll keep you updated!)
