We’ve separated the PC controls for Cult of the Lamb as they differ to the console options most significantly. You’ll largely be using the mouse to fight during the dungeon sections, but you can opt for key inputs instead if you prefer. It's possible to rebind any of the available controls as desired.

Cult of the Lamb’s console controles will feel very familiar to those who have put time into other dungeon-crawling roguelikes such as Hades. Make sure you’re dodging often and unleashing Curses for maximum damage. You'll have the choice between different layouts on console to shake up what each action does.
