Unfortunately, a paranormal containment failure has resulted in chaos at GATE labs. This is bad news for you and your friends, since you're employees at GATE! To make it out of Abiotic Factor alive, you'll have to use your brains and survival skills. And some guns, of course. However, you must come to grips with the game's controls before you can start surviving, and our Abiotic Factor Controls guide can help you along the way!

Abiotic Factor Controls & Keybinds: PC

Whether you're playing Abiotic Factor on PC or a console, you'll find that most of the controls simply dictate how you move and interact with the world. On PC, you'll have even more control over your experience thanks to a keyboard with many more buttons. Of course, you can also play Abiotic Factor with a controller on PC. By default, you'll have the controls listed below all mapped out. However, there are additional controls that you can set up yourself. Additionally, you can change any of the default keybindings however you want. This applies to playing on consoles as well! If you think that the game doesn't feel good to control, take some time to readjust your keybindings and tinker with the settings to find what fits best for you.
