Rebinding Keys in Archived

Unlike in most similar RPG titles, rebinding keys in Archived is done through the in-game chat. The command that you have to use is !bind. To reset a keybind to its default value, use the !reset command. Here are the arguments that you can use along with these commands and examples of their correct usage:

CommandExample
!bind [ControlName] [NewKeybind] [Overwrite (true or false)]!bind ManifestEGO x
!bind Parry f true (F becomes Parry)
!reset [ControlName]!reset ManifestEgo

Matija's been obsessed with getting better at games for as long as he can remember. Whether it's climbing to Challenger in League of Legends or losing sleep over games like Hearts of Iron IV and Europa Universalis IV, he's always trying to min-max in everything he plays. On Roblox, he puts that same mindset into games like Anime Adventures, Anime Rangers X, and Anime Card Clash by diving deep into the mechanics to figure out what actually works. When he's not grinding games, he's probably watching anime or messing around on his electric guitar, trying (and occasionally failing) to nail anime openings and 90's Japanese rock'n' roll.
