==Keyboard and Mouse Controls and Shortcuts==
This page details the keyboard and mouse controls and shortcuts for playing [[inZOI]]. As of the [[Early Access]] launch, controller support is not available but planned for the future.
===Text Tables===
 
====Movement Controls====
The game primarily uses keyboard and mouse, offering two main styles for controlling your [[Zoi]]: direct control using '''[W][A][S][D]''' keys, and point-and-click movement using the '''[Left Mouse Button]'''.
 
==Play Mode Controls==
These controls are used during live gameplay when controlling your [[Zoi]]s and interacting with the world.
