On this page of the guide you'll learn whether you can play Lost Ark with a controller.
Does Lost Ark support controllers?
Yes, the game features controller support. Sometimes it's not enough though - some menu functions can be difficult or impossible to use with a controller. This means it's a good idea to have a keyboard handy as well.
- You can preview the controls in-game and edit them.
- After connecting a controller (a supported one) the shortcuts should also appear in the quick access bars.
You can find the default gamepad control scheme on the PC Controls page of our guide.
Controller or keyboard - which is better?
It's obviously difficult to determine whether playing on a controller instead of a keyboard will give you better performance and more fun. It largely depends on your character class. You still need to aim when using long-range spells, so a mouse will probably work better for it. On the other hand, melee combat is not a problem with a controller, and using your skills may even turn out to be more convenient. One of the controller's issues is a limited number of buttons, but it shouldn't be a problem in the early game.
