Controls for SaGa Emerald Beyond (Keyboard & Gamepad)

by Fernando Diaz / Game Guides, General Guides / 05 May 2023

If you’re totally into the SaGa series, or just kinda curious ’bout jumping into a massive RPG world, you might wanna keep tabs on “SaGa Emerald Beyond”… It’s looking like a cool mix of what’s made the series a hit, with a couple of new twists that’ll make your playthrough super personal & unique.

What sets Emerald Beyond apart is how it seems to be pulling the best bits from its predecessorsᅳthink of the complex battle mechanics and the emphasis on player choice seen in titles like Romancing SaGa 3 & SaGa Frontier. Remember how Frontier allowed you to navigate through the game in a non linear fashion; picking from a variety of protagonists each with their unique storyline?? Emerald Beyond is doubling down on this concept but takes it even further with six protagonists and a mind-boggling array of branching paths… The vibe here is that no two games will be the same, & I mean, not just on the surface but how your decisions really change up the world(s) around you.

So let’s cut to the chase & drop this quick ‘n easy guide we whipped up that lays out all the default PC keyboard controls and settings for SaGa Emerald Beyond… Don’t forget to bookmark; it’ll come in clutch whenever you need a quick refresher.
