Squad runner controls
Your squad runs and shoots automatically. Your main job is to steer left and right. Line up early with a gate so the squad can shoot it before crossing.
| Action | Keyboard or mouse | Controller | Touch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steer | A/D, arrow keys or drag with the mouse | Left stick or D-pad | Drag or use the on-screen arrows |
| Pause | Esc or P | Start/Menu | Pause button |
| Choose a menu item | Tab or arrows, then Enter | D-pad, then A | Tap the button |
Hold phones and tablets sideways. Turning the screen upright or leaving the game pauses a run. Come back and resume when you are ready.
As new actions appear, follow their on-screen prompts. Keep your eyes on the road while moving: passing a gate changes the squad immediately, and red warning areas show where an attack will land.
