How to Change Sensitivity in Hyper Light Breaker

Want to fine-tune your controls in Hyper Light Breaker? With its fast-paced action, precise control is key. Unfortunately, there's currently no in-game sensitivity setting. This is a known issue the developers, Heart Machine, are actively addressing, with plans to include this feature in a future update. They've confirmed this on Bluesky, along with plans to fix other performance and accessibility issues.

While waiting for the official update, you have a few options depending on your input device:

How to Adjust Sensitivity (Workarounds)

Mouse and Keyboard: The simplest workaround is adjusting your mouse DPI. Increase the DPI in your mouse's settings (either hardware or software) to effectively increase sensitivity within the game. Remember, this change affects your entire system's mouse sensitivity.

Controller (DS4): If using a DualShock 4 controller, you can adjust joystick sensitivity within DS4 software. This adjusted sensitivity will then apply to Hyper Light Breaker. Alternatively, you can configure your right joystick to function as a mouse, then adjust the sensitivity as described above.

Steam Forum Method (Advanced): For a more technical solution, check out this helpful guide on the Steam forums (link to Steam forum post). This method involves directly modifying game files, so proceed with caution. This is recommended only for users comfortable with this level of technical modification.

In short, while an official in-game sensitivity adjustment is on its way, these workarounds offer temporary solutions until the update arrives. We recommend patience and waiting for the official fix.

Hyper Light Breaker is available now.
