A few days ago, we informed you about Digital Extremes’ intentions to look into the FOV issue for the PC version of The Darkness II. Back then, we didn’t know whether or not the team was working on a patch to address it, so we are delighted to tell you that the team has already implemented it via a patch that is currently in testing phase. 2K Games’ Q&A team is currently testing the FOV slider and hopefully, the patch will go live in the coming days or weeks.

The Darkness II has just been released on the PC, and it’s time to see how Digital Extremes’ little baby performs on our beloved platform. Some of you might be initially disappointed with the fact that the game is not developed by Starbreeze, developers of the first part, but from what we’ve seen so far, The Darkness II performs amazingly good on a lot of PCs and is quite friendly to low-end PC configurations.

Dear developers and publishers, start taking notes; Field of View is really important to all PC gamers. Yes, your game might look awesome in consoles and on TV’s, but on a PC monitor, it does not.

That distance is reduced when gaming on a PC – that is not hooked up on a HDTV – and a low FOV setting can cause headaches to a lot of your customers. We get it, a small FOV is a clever way to gain more performance from current-generation consoles but there should always be an option for it in the PC version of your games.
