Familiarize yourself with the movement keys (Up/W, Back/S, Left/A, Right/D) for efficient navigation.
Understand the dual function of the Left and Right Mouse Buttons for combat and interaction.

Menu Direction Commands

Hey there! So, you're diving into Deus Ex: Invisible War on PC and wondering how to get around those menus? It's pretty straightforward once you know the keys. Think of it like navigating any other menu, but with a few Deus Ex twists.

Here’s the rundown on how to move your cursor and make selections:

Up: You can use the Up Arrow key, the W key, or the 5 key on your number pad.
Down: Same goes for going down – use the Down Arrow, S, or the 2 on your number pad.
Left: To move left, you've got the Left Arrow, A, or the 1 on your number pad.
Right: And for right, it's the Right Arrow, D, or the 3 on your number pad.

Now, there's one special key here that's a bit of a curveball: TAB. This key is actually tied to Delete Savegame. So, be super careful with that one! You don't want to accidentally wipe your progress. It's definitely not for regular menu navigation, so only press it if you're absolutely sure you want to clear your saved games.

That's pretty much it for menu controls! It's good to get these down so you can quickly access your inventory, objectives, and other important screens without fumbling around. Happy gaming!
