World of Warcraft: Forever – Explore WoW: Forever with a Gamepad

Summary

A spell to cast, an ally to heal, a well-earned reward to collect—there’s plenty to keep you busy in Azeroth. If you prefer a gamepad, World of Warcraft: Forever gives you another way to join the action.

In World of Warcraft: Forever, we’ve refined targeting, casting, looting, and menu navigation for gamepads while keeping the familiar feel players have come to know.

Get to Know Your Gamepad Experience

WoW: Forever supports all XInput-compatible controllers and includes Xbox and PlayStation button icons to help you recognize the controls.

Switch to Gamepad Controls

Press Escape to open the Game Menu, select Options, then choose Gamepad under Gameplay to switch from keyboard-and-mouse input.

Make the experience your own in the Gamepad settings. You can adjust Camera, HUD Modifier, Frame Focus Style, Action Bars, Targeting, and Raid Targeting Options.

Just as you arrange spells and abilities on your action bars, take a little time to set up your gamepad controls around the abilities you use. Try a layout that feels comfortable, then adjust it as you learn new spells or change how you play.

A little faction pride, right in your hands!

On controllers with supported lighting, the light turns red for a Horde character and blue for an Alliance character.
