FIFA 23 Controls

Controls List


You need to know which buttons you should press to control your players. This page details the complete controls for playing FIFA 23 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC (gamepad controllers and keyboard). The list is long, so be sure to master the basic controls before moving forward.

Note that the FIFA 23 controls listed here refer to the Classic configuration. If you change your preset, your controls will shift.

Movement


These are the most important FIFA 23 controls. They let you get around the pitch with the ball at your feet. L2 / LT is often one of the most under-used controls, and it can give you a real advantage when jostling for the ball or position.

Attacking


Getting to grips with the attacking controls can give you an edge in finding that final pass. However, you need to master the first twelve to be well-successful.

Defending


Defending is not always easy on FIFA 22, so understanding the ins and outs can boost you. There aren’t as many controls to learn as attacking, but you must master these controls to keep a clean sheet.

Goalkeeper


Your goalkeeper also makes part of your team. He saves your goal but is also the first to distribute the ball. You probably won’t use many of these too often, but they’re still helpful to know.

VOLTA FOOTBALL


VOLTA FOOTBAL, the mode that takes the game back to the streets with an authentic small-sided football experience, uses the same controls of other game modes but also has its own exclusive.
