Default keyboard and controller bindings for Castle Crashers on PC, as they stand since the 2025 Painter Boss Paradise update moved the keyboard layout to S/D attacks and added one-key magic casts. Melee combos are listed as the light and heavy sequences the game reads, so the same strings work on keyboard or pad.
32 default keybinds across 6
categories. Most can be reassigned in Castle Crashers's control
settings.
