So, to help you find your way around all the inputs in the game, at least in the start, here’s our AC Odyssey controls list guide.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey PlayStation 4 & Xbox One Control Scheme

The control scheme from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will likely seem pretty familiar to all those that have played the previous entries, especially AC Origins. However, if you’re a newcomer,it might seem a little daunting. There are some pretty confusing aspects, such as dismounting being Circle, but mounting is Down on the D-Pad. Also, buttons change what they do contextually, but you’re probably well used to that by now. Still, the control list below might end up being a good companion in the first couple of hours. Of course, there are several different control schemes you can choose between; the ones below covers the default setting.
