Learn the Dead or Alive 6 controls: D-Pad/Left Stick for movement, Triangle for Punch, Circle for Kick, Square for Hold, and X for Throw.

Controls:

  • D-Pad/Left Analog Stick = Movement (Left/Right movement, ducking, side stepping)
  • Triangle = Punch
  • Circle = Kick
  • Square = Hold
  • X = Throw

The L1, L2, R1, and R2 buttons are also available. By default, L1 functions as pressing Punch and Kick together. These buttons are primarily for multibutton combos, which can be challenging on a standard controller. You can customize your controls to assign these buttons as you wish.

Dead or Alive 6 also supports fighting sticks.
