The controls listed above are for players on foot, while driving, and in helicopters, which is probably clear once you begin to read them. If you’ve landed here inadvertently, we also have guides for the Xbox One controls and the PC Keybindings for Far Cry New Dawn.
It’s also worth noting that the above controls can change up slightly based on unlocking in-game abilities. Take the Crouch/Slide option using Circle, for example. Ghost can also be tied to this button in certain circumstances, but we’ve outlined its default uses above.
