Controls for Overthrown (PC & Xbox)

by Fernando Diaz / Articles, Game Controls & Hotkeys / 06 Nov 2024

Ready to dive into Overthrown and grab that crown? Wait a second before you gather your army – you need to know how to control things first. Right now, the game doesn’t let you change the key settings (here’s hoping they add that later) so you’ve got to get good with what’s there. We’ve put together a guide that shows all the controls for PC keyboards and Xbox controllers. We’ve even thrown in a video that goes through every option and default setting. Let’s make sure you don’t mess up your rise to power by hitting the wrong key!
