The controller controls include controls for movement, combat, actions, and more. You cannot remap controls on controllers. Additionally, when playing with a PlayStation controller on PC, the game does not change the controller symbols so you’re stuck having to use Xbox control symbols. Here are all the console controls in Avowed.
