PlayStation

The Gang Beasts controls on PlayStation are quite similar to the Xbox ones. The only difference you would encounter between these two devices is the different keys that the systems have. The most-used controls for this game on the PlayStation 4 are:

• Jump: Hit A

While these controls are easy to remember and commit to muscle memory, they can be tricky if you try to master them all at once. As a beginner, the wisest thing you can do is to start with a few basic controls and a chosen few specials. Once you become used to these, you can gradually move to more complicated combinations. 

PC 

Playing this game on a PC can be a little difficult. That is because it requires certain three-key combinations that can be crucial for winning. You can only do that if you have a mechanical keyboard at your disposal. A positive side to this, however, is that on a PC you get extra key bindings that can help a lot in single-player and custom game settings. Some of these are: 

• Jump: Space bar
• Run: Press and hold the space bar while pressing a direction key
• Sit: Press and hold the Space bar when not moving 
• Lift: Shift key while grabbing

Conclusion

These are a few Gang Beasts controls which can make the difference between a win and a loss. If you use these wisely, you can catch your opponents off guard and use the terrain to your advantage. Especially the combos like dropkick (jump+kick), climb (grab with both hands and then jump), back flip (jump+kick), and powerslide (kick+crawl in a direction) can help turn the game to your advantage. However, these are only a few moves available in the game. Many other killer moves will become available as you progress.
