The Field of View represents the extent of the in-game surroundings that are available on-screen. That an FOV slider is finally coming to consoles in Call of Duty no doubt serves as a big step. A quick look on social media shows that many a fan of the long-running FPS franchise is incredibly happy about the news, too.
