Crimson Moon Controls — Keyboard, Xbox, PS5 and Steam Deck Inputs

What are the combat controls?

The official support docs publish a four-platform input map for the three attack forms:

Action	Keyboard	Xbox	PS5	Steam Deck
Light	Left Mouse Button	RB	R1	R1
Heavy	Right Mouse Button	RT	R2	R1
Weapon Art 1	X	Y + RT	Triangle + R2	Y + R2
Weapon Art 2	Z	Y + LT	Triangle + L2	Y + L2

Keyboard Weapon Art keys X and Z are the defaults before any remapping — see below for the keybinding system.

What are the movement controls?

Movement and defense share the same four-platform layout:

Action	Keyboard	Xbox	PS5	Steam Deck
Dodge	Shift	B	Circle	B
Jump	Spacebar	A	Cross	A
Parry	Q	LT	L2	L2
Sprint	Shift (Hold)	B (Hold)	Circle (Hold)	B (Hold)

On keyboard, dodge and sprint share the Shift key — a tap dodges, holding it sprints. Parry timing rules (stagger plus Angelic meter on success) are covered in the combat guide.

Can you remap keys on PC?

Yes. Since Patch 1.0.0.1 (September 3, 2026), PC has an official — explicitly Alpha-stage — keybinding system. In the team’s words: “You can find this new feature under the Settings Menu > Keyboard > select the custom keyboard profile (click the left arrow).”

Inside the custom keyboard profile you can currently rebind every available action, revert bindings to their defaults, and adjust mouse sensitivity. Not yet included, all officially planned for a future update: multiple bindings, double-tap inputs and hold inputs. Hotfix 1.0.1 (September 11) then fixed the Alpha system’s teething bugs — interaction prompts and HUD button icons now follow custom bindings, Left/Right Shift display separate icons, the remapping screens gained a Cancel option, and ESC on a custom action no longer breaks the UI.

Do consoles support remapping?

Not yet — and the wait just got longer. The September 9 development update listed “controller button customisation” among the planned Hotfix 1.0.2 fixes; on September 17 the team moved it to Patch 1.1 (planned for October), saying the implementation “has presented some additional challenges” and “We’d rather take a little more time and make sure it works properly than release it before it’s ready.” Until it ships, the official support docs’ control lists treat controller layouts as fixed — anything beyond that would be speculation. For what each platform version includes otherwise, see the platforms guide, the PS5 guide and the Xbox guide.
