With 2042 not doing so hot, it seems like Battlefield V is still the game everyone is playing. Weird how that stuff works out. Presumably because of that, we’re seeing a notable interest in having a control guide reference. Especially for the Sony ecosystem, for one reason or another. Not my job to know!
