Keyboard and mouse are extremely popular inputs for Battlefield 6 players. While most players still play the game on a controller, thanks to the console versions, many fans have swapped to a keyboard and mouse due to how difficult it can be to nail down the best controller settings in Battlefield 6.
If you’ve made the switch to keyboard and mouse (KBM) or have been using KBM for ages, you’ll need the best settings for your devices. Getting your keybinds, sensitivities, and other settings tuned just right can lead to a more enjoyable gameplay experience and often makes the difference between life and death on the battlefield.
Below, you’ll find the optimal setting for every keyboard and mouse menu option in Battlefield 6.

And that takes care of every pertinent keyboard and mouse setting you’ll need in Battlefield 6. We ommitted some of the non-important settings and all of the UI keybinds, as those are generally left perfectly fine on their default options. However, you can always head back into the settings if you find you want to change something on that front. We also recommend to try our settings and then tinker with them yourself to find the best values for you and your preferences.
