Diablo 4 (D4) features both keyboard and mouse gaming alongside controller support on multiple platforms! Read on to know the most recommended setup and to know if you should use a mouse and keyboard or a controller in playing Diablo 4!
List of Contents
When it comes to the Diablo franchise, playing the game with a mouse and keyboard is still the best way to go. Be it veterans, returning players, or new players, mouse and keyboard will always be the clear winner between the two setups.
Even if mouse and keyboard gaming reigns as the best setup of the game, Diablo 4 offers controller support for those who prefer this option. With settings that are easily adjusted on the menu screen, its controller support is well-implemented and still a viable choice.
| Advantages When Playing with Keyboard and Mouse | |
|---|---|
Diablo 4 is heavy on combos, and in order to squeeze out the damage from combos and chain attacks, precision and timing is required. These specific strategies are best executed when using a keyboard and mouse.
Pressing the escape button and clicking on the menus lets you navigate faster than pressing directional buttons on the controller.
Chatting is definitely much easier to execute with a mouse and a keyboard. Communication is key in Diablo 4 especially when tackling the World Bosses once they are unlocked, so a keyboard and mouse is definitely needed.
Using a controller in playing Diablo 4 alleviates the need of looking back and forth from the keyboard to your monitor. The distance of your eyes from the screen are also farther, which means it places less strain on the eyes, and more focus on the game.
Diablo 4 is big on exploration with the areas being massive, so playing on a controller makes it easier to roam around with ease. While it is not the best for executing precise actions, it is definitely easy to move your character around with one.
