WSGF’s forum member, anteronoid, has released a FOV mod for Middle-earth: Shadow of War. This mod uses CheatEngine in order to increase/decrease the game’s FOV. Now since this is a single-player game, we believe it won’t get you into any trouble. Still, you will use it at your own risk.
What’s cool is that anteronoid created a full version for those that don’t have CheatEngine installed. However, this version may trigger a false positive from Anti-virus programs. According to anteronoid, this mod will do stuff in the memory code and inject FOV values which will trigger most Anti-virus programs.
We’ve scanned this version and it’s free from viruses. However, if you don’t feel comfortable with it, you should not download it. The problem here is that the game does not offer any FOV sliders so there isn’t any alternative other than this mod.
All you have to do – in order to change the FOV – is start the game and load your save, alt-Tab back to desktop and start the FOV changer exem alt-Tab back to game and enable script with hotkey NUM 0. Then you can increase or decrease the FOV with NUM+ and NUM-, and you can go back to the default FOV with NUM*. And that’s it.
You can download the Middle-earth: Shadow of War FOV mod from here.
Here is hoping that Monolith will add a FOV slider to the game via a post-launch patch.
Enjoy!

They were too busy pondering how to f*ck us over to bother implementing that sh*t into the settings.
As always thank you to the modders who care more about gaming than some Developers. Also thank god PC gamers are fighting back some or who knows what the landscape would look like. Maybe next would be a paid unlock FOV slider as a DLC. It’s an extra feature for only $5 : (
Don’t forget the anti aliasing for an extra $1 for EVERY x2 amount you increase!
Want ultra settings? That will be another $1.
8 years since the Borderlands controversy & we still have to do this manually.
Yet people still wonder why we complain so much to developers about the state of their PC releases.
Listen to feedback so we can improve our product ? Nah just put some DRM our product is fine as it is.
After that they still have the balls to say that if the product is not selling well, its because of pirates. Some people just live in their own little worlds i suppose.
Totally It’s insane, there is no excuse for not adding it 🙁
Price savvy PC Lords bought this loot gambling trash?
According to Steamspy a little over 250,000 have and the game is getting really good reviews on sites and in feedback. I can’t check most gaming sites at work right now but this weekend I’m going to check into the rumor that it’s a grindfest towards the end of the story to finish the game to try to squeeze a few more dollars out of us on loot boxes. I wouldn’t go for that loot box sh*t even if it’s true but a lot of gamers probably will cough up the $$$.
It looks like a decent game, If only people could control their impatience!
This is what companies are doing, Taking advantage of this generations short attention spans and milking it.
Grind fest isn’t bad in a way you are getting more play hours for your hard earned, Problem is most will give in and just cough up the dollars.
