This list collects all of the default control inputs and keybindings for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty controls aren’t too much different than what you’d expect from Team Ninja’s Nioh games. You’ll attack with the face or mouse buttons depending on your input device, and aiming weapons is pretty much the same. There are, however, some essential button and binding combinations that you’ll need to know about to make it through this crushing yet rewarding Soulslike.
