Tips for Controller Comfort
  • Spiritfarer plays much more comfortably with a controller.
  • 360-degree analog control makes capturing Glims, bright Jelly, and bottles of lightning during Jellyfish raids and lightning storms easier.
  • Accessing hidden and hard-to-reach areas is much easier with analog controls.
