Soulmask Controls Guide: PC (Mouse & Keyboard), Controller (PlayStation, Xbox)
Posted on by
There are tribes to unite, masks to collect, and powers to unleash in Soulmask. However, learning the game's controls is an essential step you need to take before exploring all of the mysteries that Soulmask has to offer. We have the details below for all Soulmask controls on PC whether you're using a mouse and keyboard or your preferred controller.
Plenty of the controls in Soulmask are similar to those you find in other modern open-world survival crafting games. You can expect a light attack, heavy attack, dodge roll, sprint button, and other basic character controls. Additionally, Soulmask has its tribal system. This allows you to assign work to different tribesmen and manage other aspects of their behavior.
While none of the controls in Soulmask are too challenging to learn, there are plenty of actions to get familiar with. Luckily, you can remap your controls to fit your personal preferences. It doesn't matter if you're using a mouse & keyboard or controller. Follow these steps to change your controls:
