During gameplay, the assistance options will always show the default keybinds for specific moves. For instance, Grapple will be set to K, Pin to L, Reversal to I, and Strike to J. Regardless, players can remap these keys to personalize their controls.

While in Input Settings, remap keys by simply changing the default. Players can remap the keys, depending upon right-handed or left-handed preference. Ideally, Grapple, Pin, Reversal, Strike, and Climb should be remapped to keys that are closer to the movement buttons. Players can remap the keys to Q, E, R, F, and C for those who prefer left-handed controls. Similarly, keybind the aforementioned moves to the direction arrows and Numpad for right-handed controls.
