In competitive shooters like Fortnite, having the best Field of View is crucial for spotting enemies, fitting your playstyle, and improving aim.

Fortnite first introduced customizable FOV in Chapter 5 Season 1, and it has remained one of the most essential features in Chapter 6 to get an edge over your opponents in the Battle Royale. Both PC and console players can adjust their settings to improve gameplay.

Here’s how to change your FOV in Fortnite, along with the best settings to maximize your performance.

Changing your FOV settings

  2. Select Game Settings
  3. Scroll down to Extra Game Options

Here are the lowest and highest values you can choose for each slider option:

  • FOV Minimum – You can choose between 60 to 75 Degrees.
  • FOV Maximum – You can choose between 85 to 105 Degrees.

Once you’ve made your selections, simply click ‘Apply’, and your changes will be instantly applied in-game.

You can adjust your settings anytime during Fortnite, whether you’re in the lobby, in a Battle Royale match, or playing other modes. So if you’re not enjoying how things are looking, you’re able to tweak things as you go pretty quickly.

What are the best FOV settings for Fortnite?

  • FOV Minimum: 75 Degrees
  • FOV Maximum: 105 Degrees

Fortnite’s expansive map and dynamic environment make it easy to be spotted or attacked from all directions. To stay ahead of threats, boost your awareness, and improve your accuracy when engaging enemies, the FOV settings recommended above are the highest values available for both options and are the best choice overall.

However, this can vary depending on various factors, such as your monitor size, distance from the screen, and playstyle. If the maximum values don’t feel right for you, don’t worry—adjust the FOV and test it out until you find what works best for your gameplay.
