Controlling the character, in this case, Frey, is the key to beating this game. This guide will see the entire list of keybinds and controls for Forspoken for PS5 so that you know how to traverse the world and fight enemies proficiently.

The game will give you a small tutorial on movement and combat mechanics, but in my opinion, it is not enough since you can do a lot more than the game does not tell you.
These keybinds and precise controls will help you figure out which buttons do what and, in turn, help you enjoy Forspoken properly.

These are the roots of the movement, utility, and combat binds for PS5, or should I say, any controller. if you happen to use an XBOX controller or the entire console, similar settings will apply there.
Here are the rest of the settings for reference:
Gameplay Balance Settings
- Difficulty – Preference
- Aim Assist – On (I Keep this one for ease of playing the game)
- Spell-Switching Slowdown – Default (which is Slow)
- Damage Received – Default
- Stamina Recovery Speed – Fast
- Automatically Use Healing Items – Off
- Enemy Knockdown Time – Default
- Automatic Support Spell Switching – Off
- Auto-Evasion – Off
As you can see, the game has made it quite evident that it wants to help you even further in enjoying the game. The choice is yours regarding how much help you want from the game.
Since I could not figure out all of these settings straight out of the game or the tutorial itself, making this guide was necessary for me to help out all players looking for a quick reference.
I hope this will help you figure out Forspoken’s binds and controls. Let me know how you are enjoying the game. Thanks for reading, and I will see you with more Forspoken Guides.
