How to Change Sensitivity in Hyper Light Breaker

Adjusting Sensitivity in Hyper Light Breaker: A Guide

Currently, Hyper Light Breaker lacks native sensitivity settings. This is a notable omission, especially considering the game's emphasis on precise timing and reactions. However, the developers, Heart Machine, have confirmed plans to address this via an upcoming update, along with other performance and accessibility improvements.

This positive news makes waiting for the official patch the most straightforward solution. The update is expected to resolve several issues, enhancing the overall gameplay experience. While we haven't yet provided a full review, some adjustments are undoubtedly needed.

Nevertheless, if you're eager to play now, here are some workarounds:

Mouse and Keyboard Users: The simplest method is adjusting your mouse DPI. Increase the DPI either through your mouse's hardware settings or using software. This effectively increases in-game sensitivity, though remember this affects your entire system's mouse responsiveness.

Controller Users (DS4): If using a DualShock 4 controller, utilize DS4 software to modify joystick sensitivity. These changes will carry over to the game. Alternatively, configure your right joystick to emulate a mouse, then adjust sensitivity as described above.

Steam Forum Workaround (Advanced Users): A more technically involved solution exists, detailed in a Steam forum post by user ErkBirk (link omitted for brevity, but easily searchable). This involves directly modifying game files via the Windows Run command. This method is not recommended for users lacking technical comfort, reinforcing the suggestion to wait for the official patch.

In summary, while a dedicated sensitivity setting is absent, temporary solutions exist for those unwilling to wait for the upcoming update. Hyper Light Breaker is currently available.
