Playstation[edit]

DC Universe has a very simple control scheme, which is understandable for a Console/PC MMO. On the PS3 Controller, the game uses a typical setup

  • Left analog stick moves the character (L3 activates a special movement power like superspeed or flight)
  • Right analog controls the camera
  • Face buttons jump, grab, and launch attacks and combos
  • Shoulder buttons activate targeting and action modifiers.

Players can alternate their targeting options between enemies and objects, alike.
