An example of a display control system displays, on a display device, an image of a three-dimensional space representing a real world or a virtual world. The object is arranged in the three-dimensional space on the basis of a line-of-sight direction determined in the three-dimensional space. In addition, an image in a field-of-view range, determined on the basis of the line-of-sight direction, of the three-dimensional space is displayed on the display device. The display control system arranges the object in either a first control mode in which the object is arranged on a reference plane set in the three-dimensional space or in an area near the reference plane or a second control mode in which the object is arranged away from the area. In addition, the display control system switches between the first control mode and the second control mode in accordance with the line-of-sight direction.
