Can you Remap Controls in The Plucky Squire?

Yes, you can rebind the controls in The Plucky Squire. When viewing either the keyboard and mouse, or regular controller binds, you can select “Configure Controls“, and go through the list of controls to rebind to your liking.

On PC, The Plucky Squire does not have native support for PlayStation controllers and no option to change the button prompts either. This also means players must use Steam Input to ensure their DualShock 4 or DualSense works properly. If you’re also running into any controller issues in The Plucky Squire, here is how you can fix those.
