Cronos: The New Dawn on the SWORL: A Survival Horror Layout
JFA Staff
Bloober Team's Cronos: The New Dawn gave Retro trouble finding something comfortable, so this layout is the result of a lot of experimenting.
What makes Cronos tricky
Cronos combines hold-to-aim, charged shots, stomps and the pressure of burning corpses before enemies can merge. That's a lot of held inputs, so the goal is putting the held actions on fingers that can hold without strain. The diagram shows where Retro landed.
How to import a SWORL layout
- Keep your SWORL on its default profile, or recreate the diagram above in the SWORL configurator.
- Apply any in-game button bindings shown in the screenshots.
