Do you bind left and right block in Gloria Victis?

Understanding combat mechanics in Gloria Victis, including blocking controls. Unknown

There's no confirmed answer to this yet — below is what is and isn't known. We'd rather be honest than invent one; this becomes a full guide the moment it's confirmed.

Blocking Mechanics in Gloria Victis

In Gloria Victis, combat is based on non-target action mechanics, which means players must manually aim and block incoming attacks. The blocking system involves directional blocking, where players can block attacks from different angles. However, the specifics of whether you can bind left and right block to different keys or buttons is not detailed in the available information.

Players typically use the default key bindings for blocking, which allows them to react to incoming attacks by holding the guard and matching the direction of the swing. This system encourages players to learn the timing and direction of attacks to effectively defend themselves.

What Isn't Confirmed Yet

There is no specific confirmation regarding the ability to customize or bind the left and right block functions to different keys. Players may need to experiment with the default controls or check the settings menu in-game for any customization options.

Where to Verify

For the most accurate and up-to-date information on combat mechanics and controls, it's best to refer to the official Gloria Victis Steam page or the community Discord. These platforms often provide the latest updates, patch notes, and community discussions that can clarify any uncertainties regarding control bindings.
