COD MW2 FOV Slider On Consoles Confirmed

A FOV slider on consoles was one of the biggest requests for Modern Warfare (2019), and yes, Vanguard did have one.
Changing your Field of View defines the height and width of your in-game view. The lower the FOV, the less you can see.

Most gamers like a higher FOV setting, but there are some drawbacks. For example, increasing the FOV from default may cause lower frame rates and some artifacts on less powerful systems.
Speaking of less powerful systems, users have also confirmed that Modern Warfare 2 has a FOV slider on PS4, and there’s no reason to believe it won’t be available on Xbox One.
Best FOV Settings For Modern Warfare 2
So what are the best FOV settings for Modern Warfare 2 on consoles? The default is 80, and while it can be lowered to 60, we do not recommend this.
We recommend 100 and 120 as the best FOV setting for all Call of Duty titles. Further, we recommend gamers play around with settings between 90 and 120 to see what works best for them. The higher the FOV, the more you can see, so a higher-than-default setting will be helpful in many situations.
