Galactic Racer Keyboard, Mouse and Keybinding Support

Check Galactic Racer keyboard and mouse support, launch keybinding limits and the developer response. Separate controller presets from free key remapping.

Quick answer

Yes, Galactic Racer supports keyboard and mouse without a mandatory controller. Free key rebinding is a separate limitation reported by launch players. Secret Mode acknowledges that feedback and is considering a future solution; it has not announced a delivery date.

Start with the controls you already own

Keyboard and mouse are officially supported. Review the in-game controls for the current layout; this page does not invent a complete key map or promise editable bindings.

Can you change keybinds?

In the Steam discussion checked on 7 October, players report that they cannot freely assign keys. Secret Mode’s developer reply acknowledges the requests and says a future solution is under consideration. That is not confirmation that a rebinding update has shipped.

PlayStation lists basic controller remapping, a category covering alternative presets or some remapping. This does not establish unrestricted PC keyboard rebinding. Check the available layouts in your current game version.

Support does not mean one input wins

The official answer establishes compatibility, not a competitive ranking. There is no controlled keyboard-versus-controller result in the cited material.

Controller rumble is confirmed. Wheels, HOTAS and HOSAS currently lack native support.

Once input is settled, learn the handling

The beginner guide starts with the official landspeeder recommendation. Use that to learn the driving model before changing devices to solve a problem that may be class-specific.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a verified list of default keys here?

No. The source confirms support but does not supply a full binding table, and we have not tested the controls menu.

Has a key-rebinding patch been announced?

The cited developer reply says the feedback is being considered and more details will follow. It gives no patch number or release date.
