Battlefield 6 Guides

Best mouse and keyboard settings

To play well in Battlefield 6, you’ll need to make sure you’re using the best keybinds and settings for mouse and keyboard you can.

Using the best guns, classes, and settings will give you a strong head start, but you’ll need to be able to move and aim well to have any chance at success. No matter whether you’re on console or PC, we’re breaking down all the keyboard and mouse settings and keybinds you need, including how to change your sensitivity.

Most of these settings are down to personal preference, but we recommend starting with a sensitivity of around 50 and to keep adjusting until you feel comfortable.

It’s worth binding Crouch (toggle) and Slide to L Ctrl as Battlefield 6 recognizes whether you’re walking or running, intuitively deciding whether to crouch or slide.

Depending on what extra buttons your mouse has, you can also bind some commonly used actions, such as Gadget 1 or Gadget 2, to your mouse for quick and easy access.

Vehicles

The default vehicle keybinds work just fine, but feel free to play around with them to find something that suits you and your playstyle better.
