Can you Remap Controls in Pragmata?
You can fully remap the controls in Pragmata when playing with a keyboard and mouse, but if you’re using a controller, you can only adjust the bindings of the face buttons.
Pragmata Controller Support on PC
On PC, Pragmata has native support for Xbox and PlayStation controllers. I’ve tested the Xbox Series controller as well as the DualSense, and both work without the need for Steam Input.
If you’re playing with a DualSense, you can also enjoy the following features in Pragmata:
- Haptic Feedback
- Adaptive Triggers
- Motion Controls (Gyro Aiming)
If, for whatever reason, either of these controllers isn’t working properly, I recommend disabling Steam Input to avoid any conflicts.
- Make sure Pragmata isn’t running.
- Open Steam and navigate to your library.
- Here, right-click on Pragmata and select Properties.
- In the Controller tab, select the Disable Steam Input option under Override for Pragmata.
Overall, Pragmata has tight controls, and every aspect of the gameplay feels intuitive, built around a simple but effective control scheme.
