How to Change Sensitivity in Hyper Light Breaker

Want to adjust the sensitivity in Hyper Light Breaker? Given the game's fast-paced action, precise control is crucial. Unfortunately, there's no in-game sensitivity setting at this time. This is a known issue the developers, Heart Machine, are actively addressing. They've announced plans to add this feature, along with performance and accessibility improvements, in a future update.

While a native solution is on the horizon, here are some workarounds:

Workarounds for Adjusting Sensitivity

Mouse and Keyboard: The simplest method is adjusting your mouse DPI. Increase your DPI settings (either through your mouse's hardware settings or system software) to effectively increase in-game sensitivity. Keep in mind this affects your mouse cursor speed across your entire system.

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

Advanced Method (Steam Forums): For those comfortable with file editing, a community member on the Steam forums (ErkBirk) has detailed a method involving direct file modification. We recommend checking their post for detailed instructions. This approach requires technical expertise and is not recommended for less experienced users.

In summary, patience is key. While a proper in-game solution is coming, these workarounds offer temporary adjustments until the official update arrives.

Hyper Light Breaker is available now.
