Playing FIFA 13 using the keyboard is difficult enough when you do know the controls. Imagine trying to play it when you don’t!

With the vast array of controllers on the market for PC’s only the die hard, PC purists are left navigating the keyboard. And when you see crème de la crème PC gamers at work it really is wonderful to watch.

Using the keyboard for FIFA 13 is an art, much like a concert pianist a dying art, but an art none the less. (Let me know if you still use the keyboard in the comments!)

To help you out here are some handy screenshots of the FIFA 13 PC Keyboard controls that you can refer to whilst in game.

      go to keyboard control settings and choose “Alternate” where the default for direction are the traditional direction arrows , leave it as they are and change the rest as you wish, you will find that your settings will be saved as “castom1” , use it every game

    Do you have an update for the new keys ea had changed?

  3. Pranesh December 9, 2012 at 4:14 am

    I believe the update was not keys..but for some server disconnect and other bugs. And if you want to map your controller settings, using x360ce(emulator) you can do if for all your gamepad keys.
