Understanding the controls is your first step to survival. Movement is primarily handled with the left analog stick, allowing you to walk, run, and navigate the environment. The right analog stick controls the camera, which is vital for situational awareness, especially when surrounded by hordes of zombies. Pressing L3 (left analog stick) will initiate a sprint, consuming a small amount of stamina but allowing for quick escapes or rapid repositioning. R3 (right analog stick) will center the camera behind your character, which can be useful in tight spaces or after a chaotic encounter. Remember to practice these movements in safe zones before engaging large groups of enemies. Mastering evasive maneuvers and quick turns can be the difference between life and death.
