You can control your character in Eden Eternal two ways: with your mouse or with your keyboard.
Keyboard Movement
A few common controls allow you to navigate with your keyboard, freeing up your mouse for other on-screen actions.
-
W : Either of these keys will move your character forward
S : Either of these keys will move your character backwards
A : Either of these keys will turn your character left
D : Either of these keys turn your character right
Q : Sprint to the left
E : Sprint to the right
Mouse Movement
If you'd like to direct your character with your mouse, Eden Eternal uses the click-to-move system. Simply click anywhere on the ground and your character will walk to that spot. If you bring up the map (Hotkey: M) and click somewhere on it, your character will auto-route to that location.
Mouse Icons
As you perform various actions, your mouse pointer will transform into a variety of icons so you can easily see exactly what it is you're doing.
