Additional controls settings in Wolfenstein: Youngblood
The image above shows additional controls options in the PC version. Similar controls options should be available in console versions.
- Keyboard Bindings - You can drop default key bindings and create your own binds.
- Controller Layout - Check this menu if you are going to play with a pad. There are four different versions of the arrangement of the functions on the controller.
- Horizontal Sensitivity - You can change the sensitivity for the X axis.
- Vertical Sensitivity - You can change the sensitivity for the Y axis.
- Weapon Wheel Handling - You can change the sensitivity for the weapon selection menu.
- Vibrate - You can turn vibration on or off. This is only available if you play with a pad which has a vibration function.
- Invert Look - You can invert the y-axis.
- Aim Assist - It's easier to aim. It is enabled by default in the PC version. Turn it off if you want to rely only on your own skills.
- Mouse Sensitivity - You can change the sensitivity of the mouse. The default settings are, in our opinion, optimal and allow you to quickly rotate or change the direction of movement.
- Toggle Sprint - You can specify how to activate a sprint by pressing a key once or holding it down.
