Delta Force developer Team Jade confirmed native keyboard and mouse support for consoles and said the next seasonal update will bring a large performance and graphics boost. The Q&A also notes gyro aiming will arrive next year, though no exact month was provided.
The studio had already mentioned console-only crossplay plans in a previous post, which is referenced in the team Q&A about controls and performance via a dedicated crossplay announcement. The Q&A states that native keyboard and mouse input on consoles will automatically enable cross-play. Team Jade added a reminder that certain console adapters that simulate a controller without enabling cross-play are banned and will be subject to penalties. Who asked for native KBM? Many players did, so that should be welcome news.
Oh, and gyro aiming was confirmed for the console builds, with a release window of next year, although a precise month or quarter was not specified.
Controls and Feel
Team Jade listed planned fixes to controller movement, shooting, and aim assist. The studio named two headline items:
- Movement Improvements: Future updates will introduce full support for analog movement, delivering more natural and optimized control.
- Shooting Feel Adjustments: Shooting performance is currently affected by multiple factors, including latency, frame rate, stick curve settings, and aim assist behavior. We plan to optimize each of these areas in upcoming versions to provide a smoother and more accurate controller experience.
In the Q&A the studio also acknowledged aim assist issues at longer ranges and said those cases will be addressed so aim assist behaves more predictably.
Performance
Team Jade described a significant set of optimizations targeting console performance in the next seasonal update. The studio specifically stated that performance mode will run at higher frame rates across console platforms, including the Xbox Series S, and that PlayStation 5 Pro players will receive PSSR support for sharper visuals and improved stability.
The studio did not provide a hard timetable beyond placing those improvements into future updates, so exact release dates remain unclear.
