Wo Long: The Fallen Dynasty The controls aren’t too different from what you’d expect from Team Ninja nioh games. You attack with your face or mouse buttons depending on your input device, and weapon aiming is pretty much the same. However, there are some essential button and tie combos you need to know in order to pull it off this crushing but rewarding soulslike.
In fact, this Wo Long: The Fallen Dynasty The controls list is your companion when you’re new to the game or when you need to remember a combination on the fly without having to interrupt the game and bring up the input menu. Maybe you try to hit the badass first boss or play in multiplayer and just don’t want to take a break.
Whatever the reason, these are the default inputs and shortcuts for Wo Long: The Fallen Dynasty on PC, PlayStation and Xbox platforms including PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Series X|S.
