For PC players of Forza Horizon 6, a keyboard and mouse setup offers precise control, allowing for quick adjustments and strategic maneuvering. While many players opt for a controller, mastering the keyboard and mouse can be equally rewarding, especially for those accustomed to this input method. The game provides extensive customization options to tailor the controls to your liking.
Default Keyboard Layout:
- W: Accelerate
- S: Brake
- A: Steer Left
- D: Steer Right
- Spacebar: Handbrake
- Shift: Clutch (if manual transmission)
- Q: Downshift (if manual transmission)
- E: Gear Up (if manual transmission)
- R: Rewind
- C: Change Camera
- V: Horn
- Arrow Keys: Menu Navigation, Radio Stations
- Mouse Movement: Steering (can be adjusted for sensitivity and acceleration)
- Mouse Buttons: Customizable actions, often used for horn or camera functions.
Mouse Control Considerations:
The mouse primarily controls steering. You can adjust the following in the settings:
- Steering Sensitivity: Controls how quickly the car reacts to mouse movement.
- Steering Acceleration: Determines how much the steering input increases as you move the mouse further from the center.
Customization:
In the game's settings menu, under "Controls," you can rebind almost every key to your preference. This allows you to create a layout that feels most comfortable and efficient for your gameplay, whether you're cruising through the scenic Japanese countryside or competing in intense Horizon Rush events.
