Adjusting Sensitivity Settings in Hyper Light Breaker: A Guide

Author : Amelia Apr 09,2025

If you're diving into *Hyper Light Breaker*, a game where quick reflexes and precise timing are key, you'll want to tailor the controls to your playstyle. Unfortunately, there's currently no built-in way to adjust sensitivity in *Hyper Light Breaker*. This might seem like a significant oversight, especially for a game entering Early Access, but rest assured, the developers at Heart Machine are on it. They've shared updates on Bluesky, indicating that a fix for this, along with other performance and accessibility issues, is on the way. It's probably best to wait for this update, as it will likely address several other concerns as well.

However, if you're eager to play *Hyper Light Breaker* and need to adjust sensitivity now, there are a few workarounds:

A armored man in Hyper Light Breaker as part of an article about how to change sensitivity.If you're using a mouse and keyboard, you can increase the DPI of your mouse, either through hardware settings or software adjustments. This will effectively boost your sensitivity, though remember, this change will affect your mouse's performance across your entire system, making it quite zippy.

For those using a controller with DS4 software, you can tweak the joystick sensitivity within the software itself. This adjustment will carry over to the game, allowing you to customize your experience. You can also configure your right joystick to function as a mouse joystick and adjust its sensitivity accordingly.

A more technical approach involves following a guide from the Steam forums. This method requires some tech-savviness, as you'll need to access and modify game files using the Windows Run Command. If you're not comfortable with this, we recommend waiting for the official update. You can find detailed instructions by following the link to the community post by ErkBirk.

And that's how you can change sensitivity in *Hyper Light Breaker*. Keep an eye out for the upcoming update from Heart Machine, which should make these adjustments more straightforward.

*Hyper Light Breaker is available now.*
