Can You Rebind Controls in Star Wars: Galactic Racer?
No, you can’t rebind controls in Star Wars: Galactic Racer regardless of your input preference. There’s an alternate controller scheme, but you can’t fine-tune the controls to your liking.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer Controller Support on PC
Star Wars: Galactic Racer natively supports Xbox and PlayStation controllers, including the DualSense. It also supports adaptive triggers when playing with the DualSense. The game also shows the correct in-game prompts for both controllers, and it switches seamlessly when you switch controllers. You don’t need to disable Steam Input to access these features.
The only thing I’d really like added is the ability to rebind controls; otherwise, Galactic Racer feels great to play, especially on a controller.
