"Ghost of Tsushima" Key Bindings and Shortcuts Summary

Basic Controls

Ghost of Tsushima is based on FPS WASD controls and uses key layouts similar to other open-world games. Sprint (Left Shift) and crouch (C) are important elements for stealth play, so make sure to memorize them.

Combat Controls

Next, the key operations that form the core of the combat system. Unlike FPS games, it's important to use the distinction between left-click light attacks and right-click heavy attacks, and create rhythm with Q defense and Left Alt dodge. Also, focus (C) is an important function when using bow and arrows, so remember it.

Stance Selection

The switching of "stances," which is Ghost of Tsushima's unique combat system, needs to be done quickly according to enemy types, making it one of the advantages of using keyboard controls.

With keyboard controls, you can instantly access each stance with number keys 1-4, allowing smooth tactical changes even during combat.

Projectiles/Items

These are important projectile controls that assist close-range combat. By smoothly performing projectile selection with the R key and usage with the F key, the scope of combat greatly expands. With keyboard controls, you can instantly use kunai throws and gunpowder bombs according to the situation.

Techniques/Abilities

These are shortcuts for special abilities essential for exploration and combat support. Focused hearing (Wheel Click) and calling horse (H) will be used frequently, so memorize them well.

Chat System

Key assignments for communication systems. Quick chat (U, I, O) allows communication even in environments without voice chat, so definitely memorize them.

General

Basic system operations used throughout the game. The Tab key game menu is for equipment changes and progress checking, and ESC allows immediate access to the system menu, so remember them. ESC is roughly the same in any game, so if you didn't know, take this opportunity to learn it.
