Hyper Light Breaker Sensitivity Adjustment: A Guide

Currently, Hyper Light Breaker lacks native sensitivity settings. This is a notable omission, especially considering the game's emphasis on precise timing and reflexes. However, the developers, Heart Machine, have confirmed on Bluesky that a patch addressing this and other performance/accessibility issues is in development.

Therefore, patiently awaiting this update is the recommended approach. The forthcoming patch likely includes fixes for other reported problems, making the wait worthwhile. While we haven't fully reviewed the game yet, some adjustments are clearly needed.

That said, if you're eager to play now, here are some workarounds:

Mouse and Keyboard: The simplest solution is adjusting your mouse DPI. This can be done through your mouse's hardware settings or via software. Remember, this affects your system-wide mouse sensitivity.

Controller (DS4): DS4 software allows for joystick sensitivity adjustments, which will impact in-game controls. Alternatively, configure your right joystick to emulate a mouse, then adjust sensitivity as described above.

Steam Forum Workaround (Advanced Users): A more technical solution exists, detailed in a Steam community post by user ErkBirk. This involves directly modifying game files via the Windows Run Command. This method is not recommended for users lacking technical comfort; waiting for the official patch is a safer option.

In short: While direct sensitivity control is absent, temporary workarounds and a promised update make the situation manageable. Hyper Light Breaker is available now.
