Can you change the controls?

At the moment, in the early version of No Rest for the Wicked, it isn't possible to change the control scheme. The only option for modifying key assignments is to activate an alternative scheme for the mouse and keyboard. To activate it, go to the settings menu and choose the "Control" option at the bottom of the "Gameplay" tab. In the new window, check the "Use alternative scheme" option in the upper right corner of the screen.

There is a high chance that in one of the upcoming updates, we will have the option for a complete key reorganization.

Does the game support PS and Switch controllers?

PC players using PlayStation or Switch controllers can use their devices to play No Rest for the Wicked. However, the game doesn't natively recognize these controllers, so icons and tutorials appearing in the game will display the appropriate buttons from Xbox controllers.
