- Left Analog Stick/WASD: Move Character
- Right Analog Stick/Mouse: Control Camera/Aim
- L2/Left Trigger: Aim Weapon
- R2/Right Trigger: Fire Weapon
- X/Spacebar: Interact/Reload/Contextual Action
- Square/F: Melee Attack
- Circle/C: Dodge/Sprint (hold)
- Triangle/E: Use Item/Special Ability
- L1/Q: Use Grenade/Secondary Item
- R1/R: Switch Weapon
- D-Pad Up/1: Select Primary Weapon
- D-Pad Down/2: Select Secondary Weapon
- D-Pad Left/3: Select Grenade
- D-Pad Right/4: Select Health Item

Practice these movements in a safe area before engaging enemies. Mastering the dodge roll is crucial for avoiding incoming attacks, especially from Hunters and Lickers. Remember to reload frequently when safe, as running out of ammo in a firefight can be deadly.
