## Information
|
|
|
|
Depending on the system you are playing, the button prompts might not match the buttons on your physical controller.
|
|
|
|
## Xbox Games
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Xbox layout is used by Xbox Controllers, Steam Deck, Rog Alley, and many generic third-party PC controllers and Xbox clone controllers.
|
|
|
|
**Xbox - Button Layout:**
|
|
|
|
| Button Placement | Button |Name |
|
|
| :--- | :---: |:---: |
|
|
| North | <img src="../../wiki_icons/binding_icons/RD-button-y.png" width="30"> |Y |
|
|
| West | <img src="../../wiki_icons/binding_icons/RD-button-x.png" width="30"> |X |
|
|
| East | <img src="../../wiki_icons/binding_icons/RD-button-b.png" width="30"> |B |
|
|
| South | <img src="../../wiki_icons/binding_icons/RD-button-a.png" width="30"> |A |
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Example:**
|
|
|
|
If you are playing a Xbox game that calls for the button `B` to be pressed, it corresponds to the right button.
|
|
|
|
## Nintendo Games
|
|
|
|
The Nintendo layout is used by Nintendo Controllers and other generic third-party Nintendo clone controllers.
|
|
|
|

## PlayStation Games
|
|
|
|
The PlayStation layout is used by PlayStation Controllers and other generic third-party PlayStation clone controllers.
|
|
|
|
**Playstation - Button Layout**<br>
|
|
|
|
| Button Placement | Button | Name |
|
|
| :--- | :---: |:---: |
|
|
| North | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-triangle.png" width="20"> |Triangle |
|
|
| West | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-square.png" width="20"> |Square |
|
|
| East | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-circle.png" width="20"> |Circle |
|
|
| South | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-cross.png" width="20"> |Cross |
|
|
|
|
**Example:**
|
|
|
|
If you are emulating a PlayStation game that calls for the button `Circle` to be pressed, it corresponds to the right button.
|
|
|
|
**Regional differences:**
|
|
|
|
Depending on the region of your PlayStation game, the buttons `Circle` and `Cross` switch the meaning for confirm and cancel, but they remain in the same physical location.
|
|
|
|
Keep this in mind if you are used to exiting menus with a certain button and it works differently in some games.
