Palworld Controls Guide: All PC and Controller Keybinds
Posted on by
Like starting relatively any game, you must learn the controls for Palworld to play the game efficiently. Note that the game’s controls differ depending on your device. So, keep reading as we go over the controller and keyboard controls for the game in this guide.
At the time of writing, Palworld was released on the Steam and Game Pass platforms. That means that the available methods of controlling your character and Pals are through a controller or a keyboard and mouse.
Some players may prefer to use the keyboard and mouse to use Palworld’s controls. However, some users may prefer to change the keyboard keybinds because of their awkward placements. For example, the roll is set to the “Ctrl” key by default. So, you may have difficulty extending a finger to press this button when dodging incoming attacks.
Unlike the keyboard and mouse, the Palworld controls are generally simpler when using a controller. However, the controller controls typically show the button names for the Xbox or standard PC controller model. So, it can become confusing if you use another controller with a different button layout, such as one for the PlayStation.
