God of War comes to PC today and that means you may need to learn a whole new control scheme, even if you\u2019ve played Sony Santa Monica\u2019s 2018 Kratos game before.<\/p>\n

Now that the God of War PC release date<\/a> is here, you have three options when it comes to God of War PC controls. You could use a mouse and keyboard for a traditional PC gaming experience, or you could opt for a PlayStation controller, or you could go for an Xbox controller (which will never not\u00a0<\/em>be weird with a Sony game).<\/p>\n

Although you can rebind the buttons and opt for any keyboard mapping that you want (just head to the Options\/Settings menu and have a good fiddle), many players will stick to the default God of War PC controls. Keep on reading to learn what they are!<\/p>\n
