Ghost Recon Breakpoint is finally here and you can dive into the action right now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. But, if you hope to survive the horrors that Aurora will throw at you, then you're going to need a firm grasp on the controls. In this guide, we'll discuss all of the Playstation 4 and Xbox One controls as well as go over the PC keybindings so you know exactly what you're getting yourself into.
Starting off, we're going to hit the list off with the PlayStation 4 controls for Ghost Recon Breakpoint. As with most Ubisoft games, these controls will also work for the PC version when a DualShock 4 controller is plugged in, giving players plenty of options.

We've outlined them all below so you can see all the available information in one easy-to-read location.

Now that we've covered both Xbox One and PlayStation 4, let's talk about PC. Like the previous two options, we've broken down each keybinding and its function below. Unlike controllers, though, players will find several keys only control one action, which means you will need to memorize more keys than if you were playing on the Xbox One or PlayStation 4. Every keybinding is also completely customizable (as are the controls we've already listed for consoles) so these are just the basic default settings at the time of launch.
