Short answer
Steam lists controller support for Scavland. Exact keyboard bindings, controller layouts, Steam Deck verification, and performance behavior should be checked against the current in-game mapper and your build rather than copied from another game.
What is safe to say
Controls are a practical support intent, but a keybind list can become stale after a patch or differ between keyboard, controller, and Steam Input. Keep platform facts separate from a player’s local binding.

The store listing is the public baseline for gamepad support; it does not replace the in-game mapper.
Store-backedDo not publish a universal control table without checking the current PC build and rebind screen.
Needs verificationMinimum specs and controller support are separate from a verified Steam Deck experience.
Needs verificationControl check before a guide report
- Choose the input path.Write down keyboard and mouse, generic controller, or Steam Input before testing a control question.
- Read the in-game mapper.Use the action label and displayed binding as the primary answer; a video or wiki shortcut is only supporting evidence.
- Test the action in a safe save.Check movement, interact, inventory, journal, map, aim, and melee without risking a loaded run.
- Report hardware separately.Capture OS, device, resolution, frame behavior, controller path, and build. “Steam Deck works” is not a complete performance claim.

Controls and Steam Deck FAQ
Should I copy keyboard controls from a guide?
Only after comparing them with the current in-game mapper. Bindings can change by build, rebind, or input device.
Does controller support mean Steam Deck is verified?
No. Controller support and device verification are different claims. Check the current Steam compatibility label and report device-specific performance separately.
What should a performance report include?
Include device, OS, resolution, controller path, graphics settings, build, and the exact behavior observed. Avoid turning one setup into a universal requirement.
