Controller Config for easier Jumping, Kicks and Jumping Attacks

DARK SOULS™: REMASTERED69 views2 favorites2 min readby Nuclear KangarooUpdated 20 JanView on Steam ↗

Introduction

the kick and jumping attack moves have always been inconsistent for me, this config should allow anybody to consistently perform these moves with simple button combinations

also this config adds back the Dark Souls 2 feature of being able to jump by pressing L3 while running, Bandai Namco COULD have added that feature in this remaster, but it seems they were too lazy for that

all the improvements of this config are additive, meaning you can still perform jumps, kicks and jumping attacks the old way, this config only adds new options

it also includes some extra features for the Steam Deck / DualShock 4 / DualSense / Switch Pro Controllers

Setting up the config

make sure you are using the default controls on your game

to setup this controller config, is very simple, if you have a standard controller, open this link

or if you have a Switch Pro Controller, open this link, just so you can use gyro
