Battlefield 6 rewards fast decision-making and consistent muscle memory. The layouts below prioritize reachability on a standard keyboard and a common mouse, keeping movement, aim, and essential actions on your strongest fingers. Treat these as a practical baseline: set them up, play a few sessions, then nudge sensitivity and toggles until they feel natural.

Open Battlefield 6 keyboard and mouse settings

From the main menu, select the cog icon in the top right and open Mouse & Keyboard. The menus are split into Infantry controls, Infantry keybinds, and Vehicles. Apply the values below in those sections.

Start with the recommended layout, play a few maps, then adjust. The best setup is the one that lets you hit movement, aim, and utility actions without thinking—so if a key feels awkward, move it closer to WASD or a mouse button you can press without disturbing your aim.
