Does Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier have controller support?

Play your way.

Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier is a battle royale for IOS and Android, but some may be wondering if this mobile has controller support. The answer is yes—Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier can be played handheld and with a controller. But there is a catch when it comes to controller support.

Controller support is somewhat convoluted, and inputs cannot be rebound. Some functions require you to hold down multiple buttons to use them, such as materia. Since controls cannot be rebound, you are stuck with the default control scheme regardless of whether this is comfortable.

Still, having the option to play handheld or with a controller is a great addition as some players prefer one or the other. We recommend trying out both control schemes before deciding on one. You can also have a controller attached and still use the mobile controls on the screen.

Square Enix may add control remapping later, but for now, you are stuck with whatever controller setup is the default. Regardless of how you play, get out there and have some fun!
