Controllers Not Supported on PC
Supports Keyboard and Mouse Only
The PC version of Knives Out does not support game controllers or pads. Control methods are limited to keyboard and mouse, and other tools cannot be used. If you find the controls difficult, try reviewing your control settings and getting used to the environment.
Controllers Not Supported on Mobile
The smartphone version of Knives Out also cannot use controllers. The control method is limited to the touch controls initially provided by the game.
PS4 and Switch Versions Support Controllers
The PS4 and Switch versions of Knives Out can be played with their respective console controllers, but they cannot enter matchmaking with the smartphone version.
Are External Tools Banned on Mobile?
Auto-Clickers Are Subject to Account Ban
The use of auto-clickers, which are attached to the smartphone screen to achieve mechanical high-speed tapping, the use of auto-clickers is prohibited. This is reportedly a measure to maintain a fair playing environment. It is also subject to account bans, so avoid using them in Knives Out.
Why Were Auto-Clickers Banned?
Using an auto-clicker allows for high-speed tapping of the fire button at a constant rhythm, dramatically improving tap-firing speed and accuracy without practice. This puts players not using external tools at a disadvantage, so it was officially banned from a fairness perspective.
Play in the Provided Environment
External controllers that attach directly to the smartphone to enable mechanical touch operations also exist, but like auto-clickers, they alter the playing environment and may violate the terms of service. While there are some differences between the smartphone and PC versions, basically, refrain from playing in environments other than those provided.
