Dead Space 3 is a fairly old survival horror game from Visceral Games that came out originally on Origin. Now, it’s also available on Steam, and a lot of players who prefer this client have had a chance to play it. There are a few issues that are still unaddressed but can be fixed manually. If you want to adjust the Dead Space 3 FOV on PC, here’s how you can do it.
Plenty of EA titles have made their way to Steam, including Titanfall 2, Dragon Age Inquisition, Battlefield 4, and many more. It’s been a long time coming, but we’re glad to see it finally happen.
Adjust Dead Space 3 FOV
FOV, or Field of View is one of the most common options in PC games, especially with shooting elements. Dead Space 3 sadly, doesn’t have that option in-game. You can however, manually adjust it by following the steps below.
- Open Windows Run by either pressing the Windows Key + R, or searching for it in Windows Search
- Type in the following to open the system.txt file. You will need a text editor like Notepad to open this
%LOCALAPPDATA%\EA Games\Dead Space 3\system.txt
- Now, search for the following variable
Window.FOVScale
- Change the value from 1.000 to a higher one. Keep in mind that the default value is 75
- Save the file, and exit
That’s all you need to do to adjust the FOV in Dead Space 3.
Dead Space 3 on Steam
You can purchase the title on Steam for 50% off as part of the Steam Summer Sale. Keep in mind that you will need Origin to run this title, just like how Uplay titles work via Steam.
It’s not the best Dead Space game in the series, but it’s a nice third person action shooter.
