Bugsnax is here and players are ready to get in and catch some critters. Before diving in, it’s worth taking a moment to look over the Bugsnax PC keybindings and the controls, that way you’re not left scrabbling as you try to catch a Strabby (that would be very embarrassing).
Bellow you'll find a table complete with the action and the controls for Bugsnax. This includes PC keybindings as well as button inputs for PS5 controllers and Xbox One controllers (for those playing on PC with an Xbox controller).
