Uncharted PC port controller guide
Which pads work, how keyboard and mouse are set up, and the shortcuts for the in-game menu and quitting.

Keyboard and mouse
- BilalReloaded: Controls tab in the launcher, per game, two bindings per action (keys or mouse buttons). Mouse look sensitivity, invert Y, aim sensitivity and up/down speed (0.5.0). Since 0.8.1 the mouse turns the camera at full speed in cover and next to walls; 0.8.2 lets it aim Uncharted 1’s jeep gun directly. Still open: about a second of ignored mouse input when aiming from cover in Uncharted 1 (#366).
- SuperMedo: keyboard, mouse and controller at once, everything remappable, keyboard and mouse button prompts (0.3.8). An open pull request (#809) fixes binding the Menu and bracket keys.
Shortcuts
| Action | BilalReloaded | SuperMedo |
|---|---|---|
| In-game menu | Insert or LT+R3 (changeable) | In-game settings menu |
| Quit game | Hold L1+R1+Share+Options / LB+RB+View+Menu / Ctrl+Shift+Q for 2 s | Quit game button (0.3.13), waits for saving |
| Delete a save | Select it and press Delete or Triangle twice (moved to savedata-deleted) | — |
Troubleshooting controllers
- Quick taps missed (for example the lever in Uncharted 1’s Treasure Vault): fixed in BilalReloaded 0.8.0.
- Wrong button icons: switch prompts in the launcher (SuperMedo) or update (BilalReloaded fixed a PlayStation circle shown on Xbox in 0.8.1).
- Controller not detected: connect it before starting the launcher, and close other remapping tools so only one device is presented to the game.
Frequently asked questions

Can I play the Uncharted PC port with keyboard and mouse?
Yes. BilalReloaded: mouse look with sensitivity and invert Y, right mouse to aim, left mouse to fire, WASD, and every action remappable per game with two bindings each (Controls tab).
